Isabella Holmgren emerged as the winner, claiming another XCO victory in 2024 by crossing the finish line over a minute ahead of any other rider. Following her impressive win in Nove Mesto, Holmgren delivered an unmatched performance with only France’s Olivia Onesti coming within two and a half minutes of her time.
