As a result, he earned the Svenska Dagbladet Gold Medal that year for his championship successes.
For his cross-country skiing successes, Rönnlund was awarded the Holmenkollen Medal in 1968 (shared with King Olav V, Gjermund Eggen and Bjørn Wirkola).
After retiring from active competition he was hired in 1972 by The Swedish Radio Corporation as a cross-country skiing commentator.
