Norway announced the squad of skiing to Sochi

At the end of the national championships played in Molde, the federation of cross-country skiing in Norway announced the names of the athletes who will compete in Sochi.

The last few races of the national championships, the skiathlon, were won respectively by Kristin Stormer Steira among women and Martin Johnsrud Sundby among men. Steira took advantage of the absence of Bjoergen and Johaug and beat for posting Astrid Jacobsen and Heidi Weng. Sundby instead passed in the sprint Sjur Rothe, with Petter Northug third. These races, joined to those in classic technique sprint on Thursday and yesterday, they loose the last doubts concerning those who play the medals in Sochi. The subjects of King Harald will present Russia with a squadron composed of twelve men and eight women will be able to win every single race. This is the complete list of those summoned.
