The World Cup owner in cross-country skiing Norwegian Petter Northug will take part in the World Cup in Lillehammer, which will take place on 7-8 December.

He plans to take part in a 15 km race in classic style, but the question of his participation in a relay is still open.

We remind that Northug skipped two months of training preparation due to illness, at the first World Cup in Kuusamo (Finland) he didn’t even make it to top-10.
