working at <strong>Odfjell</strong> and many of them<br />
took the opportunity to take part in<br />
the various running competitions that<br />
were organised this spring. Here are<br />
just a few:<br />
Holmenkollstafetten<br />

<strong>Odfjell</strong> Bergen participated in the largest<br />
relay in the world - ‘Holmenkollstafetten’.<br />
Holmenkollen is a neighbourhood in the<br />
Vestre Aker borough of Oslo, Norway.<br />
As well as being a residential area, the<br />
area is also well known for it’s skiing as it<br />
has been a ski destination since the late<br />
19th century, with its famous ski jump<br />
arena hosting competitions since 1892.<br />
Every year in the spring this historic and<br />
beautiful backdrop also hosts a large relay<br />
race which is split into 15 short sprints.<br />
