Previous FIS Cross-Country Skiing World Cup Coverage

For the first time since the Olympics the cross-country men will be going the full 50km in the most grueling event on the circuit. The 50km event in Oslo this Saturday will be done with the classic style instead of the free style that was used in Sochi. In the Olympics Noah Hoffman was the top American with a 26th place finish. None of the other five Americans in the field were in that race in Sochi.

This is the last time a race of this distance will be held this year with the longest race for the men at the World Cup Finals the skiathlon (15km classic/15km free).

WeSupportTheUS.com will have coverage of the results of the men’s 50km on Saturday evening as well as a look at the start list for the women’s 30km that will be held on Sunday.
