		A typical cross country ski marathon will be between 40 and 50 kilometers (24.8 and 31 miles) long, and while the top athletes may finish the event in just under 2 hours, most athletes take at least 2-3 hours or more to complete the race.
		So, one of the important things to remember as it relates to cross country ski marathon training is that you need plenty of aerobic training to be able to improve the body's ability to burn fat so that you can make your carbohydrate stores last longer.
		Fueling during a cross country ski marathon is challenging in trying to maintain your pace and rhythm and stay on a fueling scheduling.

	IN PRAISE OF THE HALF-MARATHON SKI RACES
		The realization struck that I don't have to ski the long event, that there are some compelling reasons to ski the half marathon events that are a part of all full length marathons.

		It is fun to watch the marathon skiers come through the start area after the first 30 kilometers of the long race, but you can't help feel a little sorry for the unfortunate folks who end up in the midst of the charged up, half marathon start.
