Yet antother piece of useless data:   If 2026 World Cup was 32 teams - as it shoould be imo and have one host USA - as it should be imo and we would have qualified teams according to last Euro/Copa America/Africa Cup of Nations... no world cup qualifying but continental champs as qualifying for world cup - AS IT SHOULD BE imo, then we could have continental champs every 2 years   the tournament could look sth like that:         no this time

To be fair, Johaug's only real goal is the 50k, today was still too short for her I guess  

The only Italian - Comarella took 39th place today... Do our girls even train in the summer? In 2023 Francesca Franchi took 5th place at the World Championships in 10 km freestyle and since then she has practically disappeared... Our current coach - Cramer had world-class results with the Russians in the past, he has been working with us for 3 years. Our team acquired a great serviceman from Sweden in the summer and still nothing. I don`t expect victories right away but at least some border of decency... The only noteworthy result of our girls is yesterday's sprint and 14th place Monsorno and I think 17th - Ganz. Distance races are still down.

Silly of me to think, that when you have an event named Mixed doubles, you would have a man and a woman on the sled and not another relay event 

The heart of Diggins on display once again. She seemed out of it on the second to last climb, but found her second life on the final one and bypassed the two Norwegians like nothing. Johaug will need some time to get back into her terminator form.

Wow, epic win for  Jess Diggins!     Terrible mistake by Johaug & Weng to let two sprinters back into the race.

Thanks 

The First and the third Jump of Harrington are the same Jump , so only 1 count in the final ranking
