Just one question. Was there an artist trailside during the Ski-VM Trondheim 2025 Men's 20 k Skiathlon getting ready to capture in bronze the moment when Johannes Høsflot Klæbo became immortal to Norwegians? Today felt like more than just another ski race; it felt like Klaebo signing his name on the masterpiece that has been his career. The pace was on from the start, but as the 12 men still remaining in the lead pack entered the backside of the stadium to climb the final hill, it became clear Klaebo would win his first-ever distance race at a World Championships or Olympics. Martin Løwstrøm Nyenget and Harald Østberg Amundsen charged to the finish just faster than the rest of the lead pack to round out the podium.

Marty Hall was a trailblazer; he set the tracks that many of us who are passionate about cross-country skiing have followed for decades. This week, as we cheer on North American athletes racing at the World Championships in Trondheim, Norway, we also celebrate the life of a pioneer who helped build the stage on which our modern superstars perform.

FasterSkier's own Devon Kershaw reflects on how one conversation with Hall changed the course of his entire life.
