Edited to relive the effort as it was lived. A note on the footage: a camera issue stopped me from filming between km 58 and km 117. Above the Arctic Circle the night never gets dark, so this was daytime running, but it's also the flattest, most road-heavy section of the course, so visually it's far from the most interesting part of the race. ⏱️ CHAPTERS 00:00 Race rewind 00:17 From Kirkefjorden to Fredvang 03:59 From Fredvang to Napp 07:52 From Torvdalshalsen to Kleppstad 09:53 From Kleppstad to Svolvær 11:56 Results 12:11 Next races ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🥾 GEAR Camera: DJI Action 6 Pro Watch: Garmin Forerunner 965 Shoes: Altra Lone Peak ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📍 WHAT'S NEXT Pierra Menta Été 77K, 03/07/2026 Trail Frison Roche 42K, 02/08/2026 Nice Côte d'Azur Trail 100M, 25/09/2026 Grand Trail du Lac 75K, 18/10/2026 What's the hardest 100-miler you've run?
