  Official Website...      
An exciting weekend combining citizen races for the whole family with elite events for skaters from all over the US & Canada. Seven different distances spread over four days: 1K to 100K. Try one or skate all seven! The setting is a groomed outdoor ice track on spectacular Lake Morey in the heart of Vermont's Green Mountains. Sponsored by The Nordic Skater.
 
The Vermont Ice Marathon and US National Speedskating Championships are open to all amateur athletes. Due to a scheduling conflict caused by this event being postponed to Feb. 18-19 after the warm weather in January, timing will be performed the traditional way, by hand.
  • Race Location
     
    Races will be held outdoors on a natural ice track on Lake Morey in Fairlee, Vermont. Monday's 100-km tour will be on a 5-kilometer track on Lake Morey.
