OSLO, Norway (AP) Norway's Therese Johaug blitzed the opposition to win the 30-kilometer cross-country World Cup meet on Sunday.
Johaug set a blistering pace from the start and didn't let up throughout the classical-style race, beating fellow Norwegian Ingvild Flugstad Oestberg by 3 minutes 46.5 seconds.
Finland's Anne Kylloenen finished third, more than four minutes behind Johaug.
The impressive win was Johaug's first at Holmenkollen and extends her lead at the top of the overall standings.
