More than 42: Journey to the Engadiner
Join our community of athletes. Share your stories. Get more out of winter.
BY : MALLORY BRITTON • Ski • 10.11.2023
All winter long, we athletes find ourselves wanting more. More reasons to wear more layers. More getting up early to go outside. More adventure. More dreaming of whatever comes next.
We're building a community of athletes keen to join us at the 54th Engadin Skimarathon. People who can share their stories, inspire others and make great content.
During your prep, you’ll share your tips, techniques and the moments that fill your cup. The good. The bad. The unexpected. The self-discoveries and shared experiences. The rewarding moments that remind you that the Engadiner is so much #MoreThan42.
You’re out for more. And we want you to share it.

Leading up to the 2024 Engadin Skimarathon on March 10, you’ll receive:
- A complete kit, including base, mid and outer layers and accessories worth up to €500
- Discount codes for additional kit

We're stoked for you to join our community of athletes. You’ll be someone to whom we look for inspiration and motivation at the Engadiner and beyond. Someone who wants more. So, are you ready? Submit your entry below. *

Martin Fourcade joins ODLO as global brand ambassador
ODLO’s heritage in cross-country skiing is well-known, as is Fourcade’s. While Fourcade made a name for himself from his World Cup Debut in March 2008 and through 186 podiums and his Olympic success, ODLO’s Olympic moment came in 1972 at the Sapporo games, where an impressive 25 national teams wore the first fully synthetic base layer – the ODLO Thermic – but in the pre-sponsorship era when teams paid for kit themselves. A sign of its uniqueness.
