The 800m decided it. The lead had changed hands four times already, and Emmi Hietanen took it back with 45.28 in the javelin for 769 points, standing 4773 with 73 on Rautelin. Rautelin ran 2.19.40 for 832 points, Hietanen 2.26.25 for 741, and the title came by 18.
Rautelin was second at the day break on 3260 and 101 under her own PB series, having lost 61 over 200m at 25.66 against a 24.99 series mark and small amounts in the other three. Day 2 returned 53: 78 in the long jump at 5.91 against a 5.65 series mark, 7 in the javelin, 32 given back in the closing run that won the competition. She finished 48 under the series.
Hietanen led the high jump, the shot and the javelin. She was third at the day break on 3254 and 11 under her PB series, having taken 35 in the high jump against 17 lost in the hurdles and 38 over 200m. Day 2 added 55, 79 of it from a 5.67 long jump against a 5.40 series mark. Her 5514 was 44 above the series and a personal best on the 5470 she scored in Espoo in August 2025.
Saima Kossa was second after the high jump and third or fourth thereafter. She was 66 under her PB series at the day break on 3179, and the long jump took it to 168: 5.57 for 720 points, 102 under her series mark and the largest single loss on her sheet. The javelin returned 48 and the 800m 31. She finished 89 under the series and took third by 103.
Eveliina Lehtola led three of the seven events and finished fourth. The javelin produced the gap to third: 29.44 for 466 points against Kossa's 746 turned a 187-point lead into a 93-point deficit, and the 800m added 10. Her own javelin was still 60 above her series mark, the largest single gain on her sheet, and she finished 55 above her PB series, a personal best on the 5251 she scored in Tampere in May.
Four women beat their PB series, and each of those is a personal best: Jessica Kosonen by 88 in fifteenth, Lehtola by 55, Jutta Heino by 49 in tenth and Hietanen by 44. Miia Lindholm, the top-ranked entrant on 5680 from Landquart in May 2012, finished eighth and 1034 under her series, and Janette Hanski eighteenth and 1108 under.
