Ladies have their own start time in the 2021 Vasaloppet Elite



[ad_1]

To distribute to the participants, the ladies will start at 07:40, that is, 20 minutes before the men.

– We have already discussed our own start time with the girls and they see both advantages and disadvantages, says Vasaloppet sporting director Tommy Höglund in a press release.

– It will be good to avoid the crowds with the elite athletes on the first hill so you can see the competitors better. At the same time, they lose the traction aid of children.

Today, 68 days remain until the Vasaloppet race on March 7, 2021, which will then only be decided as an elite competition for men and women at the 90-kilometer-long Vasaloppet Stadium.

The competition is traditionally broadcast on SVT with Yvette Hermundstad as the presenter.
