Skier Andersson said that the track in Norway smells of alcohol and marijuana
Swedish skier Simon Andersson described the atmosphere at the Royal Marathon in Holmenkollen, Norway. His words are quoted by Ski-nordique.
The athlete criticized the organization, saying that even on the track there is a strong smell of alcohol and marijuana. He stressed that the organizers need to strengthen security to avoid inappropriate behavior from fans.
In 2023, Andersson took 33rd place in the Oslo 50-kilometer marathon, finishing in 2 hours, 4 minutes and 52 seconds. This year, the marathon at this distance will be held on March 9 for women and March 10 for men.
On October 25, 2023, the Council of the International Ski and Snowboard Federation (FIS) extended sanctions against Russian athletes. For the first time, restrictions on the performance of Russians at international ski tournaments were imposed in March 2022.
