Finland 3 August: Sääksjärvi - Ikaalinen
This was a well-deserved restful day after yesterday's intense program!
We started into an easy day after a gorgeous sunrise in Sääksjärvi - mainly relaxing, running in beautiful natural surroundings, then camping as usual in the evening, with volleyball and sauna.
A useful gift of running socks from our Finnish friends!
As we entered Tampere, a radio station was broadcasting live from the road.
As usual, a short briefing for the day...
Journalists also ran!
A good local marathon runner joined us in Ylöjärvi, and together we reached the regional border.
As we entered Härneenkyrö, locals welcomed us at the city sports field, with some refreshments and sweets.
More interviews...
Somebody should tell Mathias how to deal with a burning torch...Finally, we reached our camping place and enjoyed an early finish today.
