Some of the country's top cross-country ski racers will descend on London for the London Region Nordic Ski Club's annual 4-hour rollerski race. Last year some 50 skiers from 8 nationalities took place in the challenge, covering a combined distance of over 2,500km. The overall winner, Tone Sunde of Denmark, covered 121.6km, at an average speed of over 30.4km/hour. The race welcomes both recreational and elite skiers - and if you don't want to keep going for the full four hours, you can simply complete as many as you can between the start and finish times. It's particularly good training for anyone taking part in ski marathons or winter triathlons - more details on ski marathons can be found on here - and most of the racers who take part will compete in cross-country ski races on snow.

As racers made their way around the undulating course, making awkward sharp turns on the unwieldy rolling skis, he breathed a sigh of relief. Despite a few technical difficulties -- the race was shortened due to one dangerous muddy section and started late to allow for last-minute sweeping -- Randall felt the event was a success. "We're hoping next year that we can get a sprint series going, to be held at some of the other paved-trail systems in town," said Randall, recreation programmer for Parks and Recreation. "Then we can end the season with a distance event like this again."
Randall said he's not sure who would lead such an effort -- perhaps a combination of Anchor ...
