One idea to prep for a XC ski race is to analyze how other racers have been performing on each split. Some legs are slower than others (f.ex. Risberg - Evertsberg is the slowest, except for of course the starting leg). We could scrape data from https://results.vasaloppet.se/2023/?pid=search to analyze the performance of racers that are under 10 hours, 9 hours, 8 hours, 7 hours, elite racers or any group of interest (we could align this with a racers goal for the race).
These splits are of course affected by the course conditions, so it would be useful to look at this on a yearly basis.
