The men’s field is headlined by track star Jakob Ingebrigtsen, who will be hoping to secure the the senior title for a third time after missing last year’s event through injury. While Jakob Ingebrigtsen is the top contender for the senior men’s title, defending champion Yann Schrub returns in search of another cross crown. He will have his work cut out, though, against a strong Norwegian team that also includes Ingebrigtsen’s older brother Filip and Magnus Tuv Myhre, who finished second last year. Karoline Grovdal’s three senior gold medals highlight a record haul of ten individual medals, though the ever-improving Nadia Battocletti has enjoyed an outstanding year on the track.
