The first international competition after the corona stop took place in Alytus, Lithuania, yesterday.

Perseus Karlström accounted for a good performance when he won the race in the time 1.20.58.

The Swede had a margin of just over ten seconds down to second place Ivan Losev from Ukraine who finished in 1.21.10.

Nazar Kovalenko, also from Ukraine, finished third in a time of 1.21.12.

Last year, Karlström took a historic World Cup bronze in Doha after a cannon race of 20 kilometers.
