Oulun Tervahiihto
Oulun Tervahiihto or Tervahiihto is an annual ski marathon held in Oulu, Finland. Held since 1889, it is the longest-running annual long-distance ski race in the world.[1] Races include 40km and 70km in both traditional and skating styles, and the terrain is mostly flat.
In 2005 the race formally became affiliated to the
Fossavatn Ski Marathon in Iceland and the Oulun Tervahiihto.[2]
The race is now usually the second race of the cup, held in March.
