There are a few other (young) girls, but they hadn't prepared for classic and so arrived today (or will arrive tomorrow, not sure) for the freestyle races. Federation wanted this race cancelled because of that, but since every race - even with one athlete - gives a certain small amount of prize money, she was logically against the cancellation and they let her start (the prize money is not much, but she very much needs every penny). Nobody is happy with this, as you can imagine she as an athlete wants to really win races, not be the winner of a ghost race. Not her fault though, she does everything by the book. https://www.fis-ski.com/DB/general/results.html?sectorcode=CC&competitorid=223093&raceid=31652 I believe Taynara, Luana and Isabelly will be there tomorrow. Another one was supposed to be there, but won't be, so I'm kinda hoping on a 4th post-2000 girl or this Gabriela (who is a coach) participating to complete a field of 5.

heywoodu 13,540 Posted March 23, 2019 #94 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Three participants in today's race....only Taynara da Silva and the coach are other competitor, the rest didn't show up today. Since the champ is sick and Taynara has been improving, who knows, there might finally be a bit of a fight when the races finally start today (it's waiting for an ambulance to arrive, FIS requirement).

heywoodu 13,540 Posted March 24, 2019 #95 Share Posted March 24, 2019 (edited) And we've got a tied 1st place in the men's sprint. Photos and videos from other angles, as well as the finish photo, both of which could possibly show a single winner, have not been made public.

Wumo 2,795 Posted June 1, 2019 #100 Share Posted June 1, 2019 (edited) Yes! According to VG.no, the 50km and 30km in Oslo will go back to a intervalstart in classic technique from 2021. This idea was proposed by the Russian delegation and approved by most nations on the FIS Cross-Country commitee meeting in Dubrovnik. It only needs to be approved by the FIS Council on Sunday (tomorrow). Last time there was a 50km and 30km intervalstart in Oslo was back in 2009.
