Tips
- Pack an extra hat and an extra pair of gloves so you can change if you get wet.
- Take care of nature and avoid a 15-minute time penalty – throw your trash in the designated waste zones, not along the track!
- Change bags are stored outdoors in Mora. Therefore, pack your spare clothes in sealed plastic bags before putting them in your bag, so you’ll have dry clothes to look forward to after the race.
