New race distance for the Pustertaler ski marathon
A new race distance has been added to this years Pustertaler ski marathon, 35 km or 60 km. With this new shorter distance, it will be a fantastic opportunity to race the Pustertaler course, but stop short of the harder second half of the race course, which has some nasty long climbs in the last 10 km.
Been a classic race, both distance are a good build up for those who maybe looking at taking part in the Vassaloppet later in the season. with the 60 km Pustertaler distance a good test race for the 90 km Vassaloppet event.
