Now I'm not Swedish (but Norwegian), but I think it's a pretty general
term in Swedish. Mostly used for mass-participant ski races, as David
wrote. I'm not sure if it's used for non-ski races of any kind; in its
basic form I don't think it has any intrinsic 'ski' meaning.

Norwegian for 'ski race' is 'renn', BTW.
