Fleten wins again – Jenny Larsson third

Emil Persson or Max Novak? The duel in the tempo race in the long-distance cup was won by Persson. It was the 29-year-old's first victory in the cup this season. It was incredibly wonderful. It was two years since I last won, so it was about time, says Persson to SVT.

The margin down to Novak was 13.2 seconds.

Emilie Fleten, last year's women's winner in Vasaloppet, can look back on a pleasant Ski Classics weekend in Orsa. The Norwegian followed up Saturday's victory over 61 kilometers by also winning today's individual time trial.

The Norwegian won ahead of her compatriot Anikken Gjerde Alnäs.

Then came a Swedish trio. Jenny Larsson came third, Louise Lindström finished fourth, and Stina Nilsson fifth.

It was almost even worse than yesterday. It was tough. My body feels worn out and I'm a bit stiff. I felt quite slow. It's hard to get that little extra, says Larsson to SVT.
