Anjala took his place at the top of the results list on the middle
distance WC qualification today on FIN5. The women's race was won by
Karoliina Sundberg running for Lynx, although the favourite, Merja
Rantanen (KooVee), came close in the end losing by a narrow margin of 4
seconds.
Second day in wet conditions

The WOC qualification runners were lucky: they had a day off on Monday, where as for other runners it was a completely different story: rain all day long. Still, most runners had happy faces after finishing their races on the slippery hillsides of Kenkivuori – perhaps some of them were already thinking of the FIN5 dances later this evening?
