Report

Easy to follow the T-marked trails all parts of the course except the last section between Grønbakken and Reinheim. Very wet along the course, especially the first 90 K, and also up Gravhøe. Found it hard to keep the right pace when running in ankle height water. The trails through Rondane (Bjørnhollia to Grimsdalshytta) are rocky and quite technical. Easy trails the last part through Hjerkinn and Dovre.  Easy to refill with water in rivers, but had only one possibility to buy food (at Rondvassbu). The other cabins was either closed for drop by visitors due to Covid-19, or I passed outside of opening hours. Heavy rain both on the first and the third day. Had some problems finding the track and avoiding a mask herd the last couple of Ks to Reinheim. Beautiful and varied route, and great challenge to tackle the distance without decent sleep.
