Tina Junegard sets out in the lead -- but right from start her troubles begin. To the very first post she spends more than ten superfluous minutes on mistakes. Also at the second and third posts the otherwise so reliable Tina gets problems. But to the mapskill-requiering 4th post she pulls herself together and shows her class by winning the section. She has also the fastest splitime on the following long section. Mistakes on the 8th and 9th controls however make her fall completely out of the victory discussions.
The fight over the victory instead turns to be between Sofia Holmgård och Elin Dahlstedt. Elin set out 4:1 behind Sofia, but was a little bit faster on most of the course sections, and after 8th post, the time difference was no more than 1:23 minutes. On the 9th control, Elin has a 2-minutes-mistake, and Sofia's lead increases to 3:22 minutes, but Elin has a strong ending of the race and is the split time winner on three of the five last sections. She also wins the spurt, and at the finish the difference is adjusted to 1:36.
Sofia makes a reliable race and thus leaves the competitors no openings to be able to catch up.
