The team is in the mnt. trekking, passing CP 29/ Spanish Creek at 6156ft. (1932 m.) They are behind team 47- “True Grit” and followed closely by team 19- “Hunky Dorys” from Ireland. It`s likely to be a fight for the best non-american team! Hurry up!! Even so, they`re able to keep the top 10 ranking!… (and I`m sure it will be on the CV`s Wedensday…)
So, when do we hope to see them cross the finish line?
If holding the position and still going strong, a reasonable guess will be CP 30/ Ennis Lake within 6 hours, a short rest/nap and then the biking in about 5 hours. Hopefully, they`ll ll finish early Tuesday morning! (Norwegian time). But best advice: follow them closely all the way through, you never know!
Some update information about the ranking from HQ:
Due to time adjustments for credits earned or penalties incurred, the exact ranking of the teams has yet to be determined. The leaderboard does not take into account time credits, adjustments, or penalties at the finish line, but will be updated in a timely fashion to more accurately reflect the true position of a team. This does not effect Nike and Merrell, the two teams who have already claimed first and second place in the race. Those two teams have secured their positions and teams that follow them across the finish line will be adjusted to their proper ranking after assessing the penalties or awarding credits.

the Hunky Dorys are now slightly ahead - go team go! Don’t let up now..

OMG - you are now in 7th place…OK, I’ve got to get some work done today….keep moving!

Yes nr 7th!!!!! Keep going, this is so good.
But it’s not easy to understand the track system. Team nr 27 is still in front, but rankt at 8th place????
Anyway, you’re doing amazing good. We are so proud of you Erling. Pernille is sad she’s not home tomorrow when you cross the finish-line (she’s at Setern gård). We miss you and are counting days until saturday.
The lokal news, Aftenposten, will write a storry tuesday eavning your amazing trip through PQ.
Hugs with extra energi from Karianne, Mikkel, Pernille og Kristoffer

Härligt att se att ni kör på så bra. Skall bli roligt att få höra hur det har varit för er när vi träffas. Önskar att man fick vara med ute på banan.
Per, jag blir glad av att höra att du håller koll på djuren ute i skogen

I am not sure if we can trust the ranking right now. The leaderboard does not take into account time credits, adjustments or penalties. After crossing the finish line the teams will be adjusted to their proper ranking after assessing the penalties or awarding credits.
With the excelent navigator Erling, our team have probably made the right decisions

Nok dyresnakk, konsentrer dere om å komme til mål nå…
Per: vi kan se på rever og andre dyr i ferien
