- She has been excellent, says enormously proud father by the finish line in Alta on the wednesday morning. Hallgeir Jenssen and Ida Helena Jenssen are father and daughter and have driven through the Finnmarksløpet as a team. -We had planed to drive together, says father. It might not be a bad idea to have father along on a such journey. Ida is just 19 years old and a rookie this year. It has been hard almost througt the whole race. I have been suffering of the lack of sleep and hunger, says Ida. - Hallgeir tells that both of them have also been struggling with the dogs. - It was the first time in the night we got the dogs really going, says Hallgeir. Some of the bitches have had a heat season and that shows on the speed. Trail conditions have been good on the way, says Ida.
