Finnmarksløpet is the world’s northernmost sled dog race and the longest in Europe. It was held in Northern Norway in March and our very own dog sled guru’s (Per Thore) wife, Hege Hansen took part and completed this gruelling event. There were two trails, the short one is 500 kilometres and the long one is 1000 kilometres long, Hege did the 500km trail, which took her and her dogs 7 hours and 10 minutes averaging speed was 10km/h.
