Walking in Norway!: True! but not what you meant. Nordic Walking is basically cross-country skiing without skis, uses poles though. Is more strenuous and uses more muscles. See great discussion here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nordic_walking There are lots of videos. Here's one with a race (not with English narration) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BrmA5OAAa4
