Seka Arning

Seka’s AVG: 1:00:32 tells you she’s right in the danger zone — close enough to win, close enough to bully the race if it goes physical. Her vibe is power-forward: not apologetic, not cautious, not waiting for the perfect moment.

Phoenix storyline: make it gritty. If Seka can get through sleds without damage and stay connected on the run segments, she becomes a genuine podium disruptor because her strength profile can break other athletes’ plans. She’s also one of the women who looks happiest when things hurt — which matters in a Major when the crowd noise fades and the race gets personal. Watch her early stations: if she’s in the top group after sled pull, the field is going to feel her presence all day.
