Sollentunaloppet 2007

Ice skating race on Lake Norrviken, 25 February 2007

Sollentunaloppet is a competition on a 14 km track (3 laps) on Lake Norrviken just north of Stockholm. As usual the event was well arranged.

This year the ice had almost no cracks, an advantage for me who have bad skating technique
on ice - it was the first ice skating race for years where I haven't fallen. (I'm the skater
with bib no 40.)
