Barb Zellmer skied her first Korteloppet when she was 50-years old. Since then, she's completed 20 more.

"I’m slow, very slow - but with dogged determination I’ve managed to finish the race every year," she said. "What a great event - and a great way for me to get outside on the snow every winter trying to get into racing shape!"

Zellmer's ski story resonated with me in many ways, and I hope you find it interesting and valuable, too!
