Some of the mushers who rested 16 hours at Neiden 1 are just passing through Kirkenes.
The fastest musher on the leg to Kirkenes was Thomas Wærner with 5 hours and 7 minutes.

Arne Karlstrøm drove through without resting. He thought it was too early after the 16-hour rest. – I’ve got some new coats I’d like to test, he laughs. His wife and World Champion Marianne Skjøthaug said he is on schedule.

Nina Skramstad is happy with her leg. The time 5.21 is ok. Her challenge at the moment is a bitch in heat.
