It was an exhausted, but very happy Robert Sørlie that arrived at Øra Stadion Monday morning. Robert spent 2 days, 22 hours, 54 minutes and 31 seconds on the 650 kilometers.
"This tasted really good - it annoyed me a little bit that last year's victory was lost," said the winner to the local radio station, Nea radio.
He admitted that the very best moment during such a forceful effort as the Femund Race, is to reach the finish line.
