On Saturday, the Norwegian Championships part 2 ends with 30km and 50km for women and men, respectively. Both races are held in classic technique with interval starts. In the pot are opportunities to present themselves to the national team management one last time for the season. 

In addition, Therese Johaug will race the 30km event, and compete against almost all the Norwegian National Team skiers. It is the first time since she retired after the 2022 Olympic season and an important step on the way to a possible comeback for the 2025 World Championships in Trondheim.
