Which country did the champion of the third Winter Olympics 50 km ski race come from?

The champion of the third Winter Olympics 50 km skiing competition came from Finland.

The third Winter Olympics was held in Lake Placid, a town with less than 4,000 people in new york, USA, on 1932, which was the first time that the Winter Olympics came to the American continent since it was held in 1924.

During the 50-kilometer skiing competition known as "Marathon", it began to rain, and the originally arranged skiing route could not be used. The organizing Committee had to temporarily find a large forest area to hold the competition on February 14. Its actual distance is 48.239 kilometers. Finland's Willy Saknen won the championship, while another Finnish player with the highest voice, Vaino Riikanen, won the second place by 20 seconds.
