These are the words of Nystad released to the newspaper Aftenposten: & ldquo; The next 50 Km sar & agrave; the pi & ugrave; difficult ever. The track will & agrave; been restored everything & ograve; Regulation will allow & agrave; to make it more & ugrave; possible hard & rdquo ;.
The FIS rules provides a maximum height difference of 2000 meters for a 50 Km. Likely, then, that the organizers exploit this limit to make a bit & rsquo; pi & ugrave; lively a legendary race that & ndash; since & egrave; faced with mass start & ndash; He has lost much of its charm.

A journey extremely hard and full of hills could instead forcing everyone to take the nostalgic slide thrust.
