"Every time I win here in Sandnes wonderful, always exciting as it should be a sprint race. My training is going well and this is the answer on the field, since here I was confronted with some of the best sprinters in the world " said Bjoergen. The athlete is so immersed in preparations for its participation in the Blink Festival was really a hit and run, with the arrival of a few hours before the competition, victory, and a little later by helicopter to Lillehammer where the next morning he had a meeting with the other girls of the Norwegian national. Preparation that seems to be going well for the Norwegian, who after six Olympic gold medals twelve world championship gold medals, three world cups, it might even be tempted to relax a bit, but on the contrary is training more hard despite his age leftovers. In fact, says: "Physically I am not worse than before, in fact, I did very well during the summer and are in good condition, I take that as a good sign. I'm motivated, and I ask myself when I know what's objectives to do, there is no no problem for me also to train twice a day despite being on vacation. This year I coached a tad bit less, I was more at home and I trained very alone, which is why I can not wait to rejoin the other girls on the team. "
