Second place overall is now Ole Jørgen Bruvoll, Team Engcon, with 2242 points, followed by Kasper Stadaas, Team Aker Dæhlie, with 2053 points.
With two 300-point races left in Season XVII, a maximum of 600 Champion points remains available. That means all top 3 athletes in both the women’s and men’s overall standings are still mathematically in contention. Anikken Gjerde Alnæs and Amund Riege remain in control, but the battle for both the overall title and the final podium positions is still open heading into the last weekend.
SPRINT COMPETITION
After the Sprint checkpoint at Marcialonga Bodø, Anikken Gjerde Alnæs, Team Engcon, is the Green Sprint bib holder with 233 points. Julie Kvale Støstad, Team Ramudden, is in second place with 149 points, and Silje Øyre Slind, Team Aker Dæhlie, is in third place with 143 points.

In the Sprint competition, only 60 points remain, with one Sprint at Reistadløpet and one Sprint at Summit 2 Senja. In the women’s standings, that means Anikken Gjerde Alnæs has already secured the Green bib, as her lead is greater than the remaining points available. In the men’s standings, however, the fight is still alive, with Gabriel Strid leading Vebjørn Moen by just 8 points before the final weekend.
CLIMB COMPETITION
After the Climb checkpoint this weekend, Silje Øyre Slind, Team Aker Dæhlie, with 227 points, and Kasper Stadaas, Team Aker Dæhlie, with 163 points, are carrying the bib in the Climb Competition.

The Climb competition remains fully open. With two Iconic Climbs still to come, a maximum of 90 points remains on the table. That keeps the top 3 athletes in contention in both the women’s and men’s standings, setting up an important final weekend in the battle for the Climb bibs.
YOUTH COMPETITION
The Pink bibs in the Youth Competition are resting on the shoulders of Louise Lindström, Team Eksjöhus, and Amund Riege, Team Aker Dæhlie, with 1978 and 2482 points, respectively.
Louise Lindström, Team Eksjöhus, is leading with 1978 points. Anja Stolpe, The Youth Team, is in second place with 1463 points, followed by Karolina Hedenström, Lager 157 Ski Team, in third place for the Pink bib with 1172 points.

Because the Youth competition follows the Champion standings, 600 points remain available here as well. In the women’s Youth standings, Louise Lindström and Anja Stolpe are still mathematically in contention, while Karolina Hedenström can no longer catch the leader. In the men’s standings, the battle is down to Amund Riege and Alvar Myhlback, with Simon Vuillet no longer within reach.
PRO TEAM COMPETITION
After Marcialonga Bodø, Team Engcon leads the Pro Team Competition with 1745 points.

In the Cub category, the battle is already decided in both women’s and men’s standings. As the classification follows the Champion points for athletes aged 23 or younger, and with only 600 points remaining, the current leaders have built unassailable gaps. Anja Stolpe and Alvar Myhlback have both secured their respective Cub positions ahead of the final weekend.
The Cub bib (athletes aged 23 or younger) is worn by the single leading athlete in the overall Champion standings (gender-neutral). After Marcialonga Bodø, Alvar Myhlback, Lager 157 Ski Team, is holding the Cub bib.
