Finland 5 August: Seinäjoki - Vaasa
Thanks to the Cumulus Hotel in Seinäjoki! We enjoyed a good night's rest and a great breakfast!
After some kilometres we met runners from Ylistaro, who joined us for quite a distance.
We went on, and at the border to Vaasa journalists welcomed us and took shots. A few kilometres later more runners joined us, and we arrived in the city centre together.
Mr. Hakan Nordman, Member of Parliament and president of the city council welcomed us and gave a nice speech.
He then took the torch and ran a few steps with the team. These were the last steps of the World Harmony Run in Finland.
After a last traditional ice cream, we said good bye to all our Finnish friends and boarded the boat to Sweden.
Thanks to Finland for all those inspiring kilometres with so many great runners and, especially, for your hospitality!
