“You’re always in the danger zone”, says Sweden’s Cross-Country ski-ace, Mathias Fredriksson about the possible reason for the recently observed cases of over-training among the World Cup elite skiers.

Two of the Swedish National Team skiers and last year’s World Championship medallists, Per Elofsson and Jorgen Brink, have both been absent from racing this year, due to over-training and fatigue.
