In two months, it's finally time for thousands of runners to gather in the Vasaloppet Arena again. Are you one of them? Or are you thinking about which race suits you best: Ultravasan 90, Ultravasan 45, Trailvasan 30, Trailvasan 10, Vasakvartetten or Vasastafetten?
Vasastafetten will be held for the 30th time on Saturday, August 20. So far, nearly 200 teams have registered to run the 90 km race from Sälen to Mora. To celebrate, and to give participants a bit of extra pep, Vasaloppet is raffling off nice prizes to the teams this year. First prize consists of start places for Vasaloppstrippeln 30 in 2023 for all team members, and another five teams will win start places in any 30 km 2023 race for all team members; skiing, running or cycling.
The Season XIV of Ski Classics Pro Tour consists of 14 events on 10 event weekends in 6 different countries.
The 99th Vasaloppet on March 5, 2023 marks the eleventh stage and the third Grand Classics event of Ski Classics Pro Tour Season XIV. Registrations for Vasaloppet 2023 are still available.
Cykelvasasprinten is a fast-paced, exciting event held in front of a large audience in Lindvallen, Sälen, the day before Cykelvasan 90. After a two-year break, the competition is back this year – Friday, August 12 – as a performance race where invited elite cyclists compete for the victory cheque. Don't miss Cykelvasasprinten 2022!
Good nutrition can both make you feel and perform better, but it's important that you eat based on your lifestyle. That's the advice of dietitian Emma Lindblom, who lectures on sports nutrition and health. On a daily basis, she helps both exercisers and elite athletes eat right in relation to training and competition.
The wait is over! It's been three years but this August it's finally time to welcome cyclists and runners back to the Vasaloppet Arena and Vasaloppet's Summer Week. Now there are only three months until the first Summer Week participants start in Sälen and finish their races under the new finish line portal in Mora. We may expect a proper party atmosphere with live bands, food trucks, trade fair and "after bike" and "after run" in Tingshusparken in Mora. Celebrations of Vasaloppet's 100th year continue!
After each event in the Vasaloppet Arena, Upplevelseinstitutet, an independent experience analysis company, conducts a comprehensive participant survey for Vasaloppet. This year, Vasaloppet's Winter Week could finally be held more or less like a normal year again, which participants described with words like "wonderful" and "long-awaited". Vasaloppet's Winter Week 2022 consistently received very strong ratings in the survey. For those who want to participate next year, there are start places still available in, for example, Vasaloppet on March 5, 2023.
These past two years, the Vasaloppet family of running races has expanded with two exciting new additions: Trailvasan 10 and Trailvasan 30. Due to the pandemic, neither race has been held in the Vasaloppet Arena up until now, but it will finally happen this August!
