That was rough Henrik almost went down himself appeared trapped but great fitness and opportunity delivered him really impressive win

This race had more tumbles than a gymnastics routine.

I love that the producer/cameraman didn't give him a second of presentation, then goes on to win!

[@APBCTechnique]

Great race and what a big field with lots of fallers

[@СветланаГриценко-ь8ц]

Красава!!!

[@CornishTigerTV]

Looking back Henrik ran that tactically awful, boxed in the whole way. And his dad would agree but his pace at the end was awesome!!! 💪

[@piggy6801]

Awfully? Or brilliantly? He was in by far the most energy efficient position throughout the race which is likely what allowed him to kick so hard at the end. Being boxed in is only a curse for the impatient. Henrik's patience and confidence that a gap would form in front of him is what got him the win

[@shabbychicken8635]

Haha the tiny flag. No one was there to give him one of those large flags cause no one thought norway would win probably. No shortage of the large ones anymore
