9:56. On the morning of the sixth and final stage of the 2025/2026 Tour de Ski, Swedish cross-country skier Frida Karlsson withdrew from the race. Winner of the race three years ago, she had indeed suffered a foot injury and preferred to give up before the terrible ascent of Alpe Cermis.
I can’t really get everything to work as it should, so we decided not to force my body to climb Alpe Cermis, especially so close to the Olympic Games,” she says in a press release carried by SVT. Now I’m going home to recover, get back into shape and regain confidence in my feet.
