There is now a rather scary took which you can find here under Beräkna din sluttid. With 75% certainty according to previous results, they can predict how long a Vasaloppet will take.

Being a 35 year old male, I clicked the option for 'risk of not making it' and came up with 10 hours and 38 minutes at -8C and 10:51 at 0C. Ganska otränad is probably a better description of me and that gives 9 hours 43 minutes. Being vältränade gets things down to 8 hours and 55 minutes. None of these are terribly encouraging, if you ask me.

For tomorrow's UlricehamnsLoppet they have now set a maxtid for the first 21km lap. I have 2.5hours to get around or they pull me. Based on my time there before in the complete absence of people, I should manage. But with a ton of people...nja...I have no clue what will happen. There are also 3 dryckstationer and those are dangerous. It is nice to talk to people.
