Klaebo notches first six-gold cross-country sweep
Briefly

Johannes Hoesflot Klaebo made history by winning the men's 50-kilometer mass start race at the Nordic World Ski Championships, securing his sixth gold medal, unprecedented for a single championship. Competing in challenging conditions, Klaebo and his fellow contenders faced heavy wet snow. After a slow start, a breakaway group formed, and Klaebo demonstrated superior strategy and power in the final stretches. Over 100,000 fans supported him in Trondheim, celebrating his remarkable achievement as he reflected on his hard work and emotional victory.
It's been crazy. I feel like I've been working so hard to just be here and try to be in my best shape and managing that, and winning six out of six here, it's just crazy. I don't have any words.
Klaebo is the first cross-country skier to win every gold at worlds since it grew from five events to six in 2001 for men and 2003 for women.
