According to the Organizing Committee press release, “this year’s race, the 37^th edition, has so far attracted over 6.500 participants. Anyone keen to ski thirty fantastic kilometers can still register, with registration open until race day,” and added:

“This year, 44% of registered participants are taking part in Tjejvasan for the first time, while 56% have raced before. Since Tjejvasan’s inception in 1988, a total of 202.742 finishers have been recorded!”
