The registrations are open for the 2010 skiing event across Finland. Called the Rajalta Rajalle, it is an organised ski trip, not a race, from Finland’s Russian border in the east near Kuusamo, to the Finnish border with Sweden in the west at Tornio.
- The official web site has more.

My skiing friend from last year’s event contacted me and yes, I’m going to go on RR2.

This time, I’ll be a bit better prepared. You can surmise as to what happened on the last trip:

  • Hot juice carrier (Can’t have enough of the hot berry juice to keep you going)
  • No backpack (You have to take off your ski poles each time to access it)
  • Quick release ski poles (To get to the food, drink and camera faster)
  • Better fitness
  • Charger for GPS tracking button
  • Mobile internet
