Tunheim has confirmed that he is going to rest long in Kirkenes. He says that the weather made his race heavier. It was especially too warm for the dogs. - The dogs are in good shape but warm. I did not get them to gallop, tells Tunheim.

Fjestad has decided to rest for 8 hours. The veterinarian means that he should be taking one of the dogs off but he has not desided yet.

 

 



Traditional arrival

Many spectators had arrived to meet in-coming drivers in Kirkenes. Tunheim was greeted with a pullover, a picture made by a local artist Jan Eilert Pedersen and a gift to Tunheim's wife. -I have got a pullover here in Kirkenes earlier but I really have use for a new one, says Tunheim.
