First off, what is a Skiathlon???

It's a historic event in nordic skiing that combines classic and skate skiing in one event.  You switch skis half way through.  You start with a mass start classic race and then switch skis to skate.  Skiers keep their skate skis in a coral next to the start line.

Classic first, Skate second.

  • You must switch skis.  It can be any ski, but you have to switch
  • Classic then skate
