"This is what midnight looks like..."

At the 100 km finish line...

Earlier this afternoon, Frank completed the Lappland Ultra Marathon 100K in Adak, Sweden. A and I stayed in southern Sweden while Frank was up north running all night amidst the mosquitoes and reindeer--by the light of the midnight sun. He reports a very memorable (and beautiful) time. The race started at 10pm on Friday night and went all night (sunset at 12:06am and sunrise at 1:23am). A short video is posted in case you ARE wondering what midnight looks like in northern Sweden...and some flower and reindeer pictures, too.
