The race length is about 80 km. There is also a shorter 50 km event called Vikingaturen.[1] NameThe event is named because it follows historical water transportation routes on Lake Mälaren which have been used since the so-called Viking times, ca 1000 CE. HistoryThe first race was in 1999 when about 4000 skaters participated. The event had to be cancelled in 2000 and 2002 due to poor ice conditions on the planned race date, and again in 2008 due to nearly complete absence of ice all through the winter along the planned route. Beginning in 2003, the race date is only set a few weeks beforehand,depending on short term predictions of ice conditions. Beginning in 2006 most of the 80 km course, called Vikingaslingan, was kept ploughed for the entire three-month skating season, not just for the race event. [2]List of winners
