Tokyo • The Norwegian ski resort of Lillehammer, site of the popular 1994 Winter Olympics, could be in the running to host again.
Gerhard Heiberg, who headed the 1994 Lillehammer Games, told The Associated Press the resort would like to bid for the 2026 Winter Olympics but said 2030 seems more likely.
“We are talking about whether we should be in the race for 2026 or 2030. This will be decided in some days,” Heiberg said.
Bid cities have until March 31 to let the International Olympic Committee know of their interest. In October, the IOC will trim the field to serious contenders, and then pick the host next year.
