Holund and Krueger mounted a brave challenge on the longest climb on the course, with Holund taking a slim lead to set up a frenetic finish. Having won the 30km classical sprint race on Thursday, the gold medal is the 24-year-old Klaebos second in Oberstdorf and his fifth overall. Nepryayevas challenge fell away as they entered the final climb, but Switzerlands Nadine Faehndrich suddenly took up the chase to set up a thrilling sprint finish, with Sundling keeping her cool in the final bend to cruise to victory. Erik Valnes left Klaebo 4.3 seconds behind coming into the final lap of the 1.2km course behind the Russians, and he waited until the final climb before exploding past Gleb Retivykh to take control of the race, winning by a margin of 1.68 seconds. After a tight opening 15km in the classic style leg of the mens race, the switch to freestyle saw world number one Bolshunov lead a six-man breakaway group of himself and five Norwegians into the final lap.
Having won the 30km classical sprint race on Thursday is a world record that will result in people running 1.68 seconds.
