Satisfied TDs

Sometimes everyone can forget something in a stressed situation. However, generally the mushers who participate in such long races as Finnmarksløpet, whether they are from Norway or other nations, are very experienced. They know what is needed and understand that the rules are written for the dogs' and the musher's security and health and safety. Besides, the equipment that the mushers use has improved in the last years. Because of this, it is rare to experience situations where we have to disqualify teams. The fact that the race-administrators have become very professional over the years also secures the quality of races like this, comments Hesthagen.
