Facts, statistics, news and trivia ahead of Vasaloppet 2024

Yes, Vasaloppet now joins the exclusive collection of international major sporting events that have been held for 100 years or more. One can think of events such as Wimbledon, The Boat Race, Kentucky Derby, Tour de France, FA Cup, Stanley Cup, British Open, World Series, Indy 500, Giro d’Italia… But with the difference that anyone can sign up and participate in Vasaloppet.

Since the first race in 1922, Vasaloppet has recorded 624,559 finishes; put together across the 99 races, participants have skied a distance equivalent to 1,405 laps around the Earth or 73 round trips to the moon. Counting all the different Vasaloppet ski races over the years, a total of 1,543,461 skiers have completed their race. If we also include all the finishes in the summer races since 2008, 1,813,643 finishes in Mora have been recorded (after Vasaloppet’s Summer Week in 2023).

History
Gustav Eriksson’s adventure in Dalarna took place during the winter of 1520–21. On June 6, 1523 he was elected King of Sweden – as Gustav Vasa. The first Vasaloppet took place in 1922. This year will see the 100th Vasaloppet, which is also the 28th with a special competition class for women (started in 1997). Since 1948, the race has always run on the first Sunday of March, except in 2015 when the race ran on the second Sunday because of the World Ski Championships in Falun.

Sveriges Television
The first live TV broadcast of Vasaloppet took place in 1966. This will be the 47th time that Vasaloppet (in part or in its entirety) is transmitted live, and it’s the 42nd time that the Vasaloppet start is broadcast live on television. 1973 was the first year with a live broadcast in colour. Since 1992 Vasaloppet has been shown live every year.

Robin Bryntesson is making his debut as an elite skiing reporter and will provide reports from near the front. Artist Klara Hammarström and comedian Måns Möller will be featured as skiing reporters you can follow along on SVT Play throughout Vasaloppet. Follow them and participate by sending encouraging messages.

Opening of the 100th Vasaloppet
07:15–08:00. Vasaloppet start, Berga by. Opening speeches by the Malung-Sälen municipal councillor and by the chairman of Sälens IF. Presentation of the Bol-Bengt scholarship, and traditional herding calls by Agneta Stolpe and Ann-Sofi Nilsson.

The extra checkpoint 2024
At an additional checkpoint, beyond the seven regular Vasaloppet checkpoints, participants and spectators will be transported 100 years back in time. The checkpoint will be set up between Risberg and Evertsberg, just before the Evertsberg lakes, in a historical environment with open fires and torches. There will be pine branch decorations, functionaries in period clothing, and horses and sleds. The focus is on the experience, and no extra food or drinks will be served; participants can instead enjoy those at the regular Vasaloppet checkpoints.

Lowered age limit
The Swedish Ski Association decided ahead of the 2023/24 season to remove the distance restriction for younger juniors (men/women aged 17–18). According to previous regulations, this age category could only ski a maximum of 50 km in a competition class, meaning that you could participate in Vasaloppet from the calendar year you turned 19. Now, there is no upper limit in the distance table when an athlete reaches junior age, meaning that you are eligible at age 17 to obtain a FIS code for international competition and thus, with current regulations, you’re able to move up to a senior class with unlimited competition distances. Hence, you can now participate in Vasaloppet from the year you turn 17 (this year, that means being born in 2007 or earlier).

The youngest person on the 2024 start list is Olof Sundin (born 2007-09-23). He will be younger than Alvar Myhlback when he participated in Vasaloppet 2023. The youngest woman in Vasaloppet 2024 is Ester Borg, (2007-11-23), becoming the youngest woman ever in Vasaloppet.

The average age in Vasaloppet 2024 is 43.0 years.

More women than ever
20.5 percent of the registered participants on Sunday’s track are women, which is the highest percentage ever.

Last year’s results
Only eight different men’s victors and four different women’s victors have managed to defend their Vasaloppet win the next year. Most recently, John Kristian Dahl 2017 and Lina Korsgren 2021. Ten times in the men’s class (since 1922) and four times in the women’s class (introduced in 1997), the person who finished second in Vasaloppet won the race the following year; something Emil Persson accomplished last year when he ended a ten-year streak of Norwegian men’s victors.

Record-breaking prize money
The flower ceremony for the top three finishers takes place at the belfry approximately ten minutes after the third woman crosses the finish line. The official awards ceremony for Vasaloppet 2024 will be held at 15:00 at Mora-Nisse’s square in the finish area. Training scholarships will be awarded to the top 15 men and the top 15 women. The prize sum is the same in the men’s and women’s class.

The first prize (for both men and women) is a gold medal, a green salal leaf garland, a big red Dalecarlian horse and a cheque of 100,000 SEK, the biggest amount so far. In addition, the victors receive the sponsors’ honorary award, a brass cast ship’s bell, awarded this year by Ahlsell. The men’s class winner will also get the Kranskulla honorary award, an embroidered pillow. (The Kransmas honorary award was given at Tjejvasan.) The women’s champion receives a pair of twine-knitted mittens with a ”Vasaloppet 2024” embroidery, from Mora Hemslöjd.

There are seven sprint prizes for both men and women: 10,000 SEK in Evertsberg (The Hill Prize) and 5,000 SEK at the six other checkpoints; Smågan, Mångsbodarna, Risberg, Oxberg, Hökberg and Eldris.
The total prize sum for Vasaloppet 2024 is 620,000 SEK. If a participant sets a new record time in the men’s or women’s class of Vasaloppet they will also be awarded a 50,000 SEK record bonus. Current record time for women: 3.50.06 (Astrid Øyre Slind, 2022). Current record time for men: 3.28.18 (Tord Asle Gjerdalen, 2021).

Placement medals – gold, silver and bronze – are awarded to those who come first, second and third. Participants who finish within the winning time plus 50 percent are awarded the Vasaloppet achievement medal. Everyone who completes Vasaloppet gets a diploma and a participation medal. This year’s medals have a special design, inspired by older Vasaloppet medals.

Ski Classics has a ”climb prize” at the course’s highest point, 528 metres above sea level, three kilometres after the start. The first seven men and women to reach this height get points in the Climb Trophy cup. Ski Classics also keeps track of sprints in Smågan and Evertsberg; the first seven men and women to reach those checkpoints get points in the Sprint Trophy cup.

No Grand Slam this year
For the 2020/21 season, Ski Classics launched ”The Grand Classics” which includes the four big races Marcialonga in Italy, Jizerska50 in the Czech Republic, Vasaloppet in Sweden and Birkebeinerrennet in Norway. These four races are valued higher in Ski Classics: Winners get 300 points in the overall cup, compared to 200 points for other races. If a skier wins all four in one and the same season, they make a Grand Slam and win 100,000 Euros. So far in history, no skier has managed to win all four races during the same season, not since Ski Classics started nor before. Since Jizerská50 2024 was cancelled, no one can win a Grand Slam this year.

The 100th Kranskulla and 36th Kransmas
This year’s Kranskulla is Elsa Hermansson (Kranskulla no. 100) and Kransmas is Gustav Johnsson (Kransmas no. 36), both are elite ski orienteers from IFK Mora.

Ban on littering
If a participant is found to have littered in or along the Vasaloppet course (which is a nature reserve) then he or she will receive a time penalty of 15 minutes. This rule was introduced in 2017. Disposing of litter is permitted in three different ways: In the bins at the Vasaloppet checkpoints; In the marked littering zones between each Vasaloppet checkpoint; Where you as a participant know that a team leader or associate will pick up what you throw. For elite skiers Vasaloppet holds special dialogue, requiring that each team takes responsibility for, and picks up, any of their waste that is thrown along the track.

Ban on ski wax with fluorine
Starting this year, Vasaloppet, like all other races in Vasaloppet’s Winter Week, has banned the use of fluoro wax.

Weather
The coldest temperature at a Vasaloppet start in Sälen was -30 degrees Celsius, measured in 1935 and 1987. The warmest starting temperature, +4.5 degrees Celsius, was in 2015. Over the 99 years that Vasaloppet has run, it’s been below zero at the start 86 times.
