The annual 50k Sörmland Ultra Marathon race took place today. The weather was perfect for running. A blue sky, no wind and maybe 13C. The race goes from Björkhagen in Stockholm via Alby and Tyresta National Park to the Rudan Nature Reserve in Handen. And that's where I was. I talked to the two very impressive winners. In the women's race Kajsa Berg won, just like she did last year. If you have a good memory you will remember my portrait of her from one year ago. She is super impressive, and if you are interested you can read an article about her here. In the men's race the winner was Daniel Nilsson. He was very happy with this, his fifth title in this race! Both portraits taken just minutes after the two athletes crossed the finishing line. They don't even look a bit tired...

Kajsa must be a remarkable person. She has just won an important race and yet she is as calm as if she has been sitting and reading a book all day.
i cannot imagine!!
amazing how they look indeed. i guess im more tired after my 5k than they are after their 50k....
You are right. THey do not look like they just finished a marathon.
Två mycket bra porträtt, tycker jag. Och precis som du skriver kan man inte ana att de alldeles innan gått i mål efter en jätteansträngning under lång tid.
Goodness me, you should see me after the City to Surf even, my face is so red I look like I'm going to combust :)) two excellent sporting portraits Steffe.
