Canadian Sara Renner had perhaps the best distance race of her career (so far) today with an amazing 2nd-place finish in the 10k classic in Davos, Switzerland. Renner was 31.8 seconds behind winner Virpi Kuitunen, a former doping convict from Finland. Kuitunen won in 27 minutes, 58.8 seconds. Next it was Slovenian giant Petra Majdic in third, while Beckie Scott made it an even better day for Canada with a fourth-place finish, about 43 seconds behind Kuitunen.
