& Ldquo; This victory tastes much better than last year, given that quest & rsquo; year there were many more & ugrave; strong skiers. Quest & rsquo; c year & rsquo; it was so much pressure on me, so it makes me even more & ugrave; pleasure to have met expectations, especially given the final challenge with Petter (Northug, nda) and all the other fantastic skiers who participated, have a happy & rdquo; Sundby said.
Level of competitiveness & agrave; pi & ugrave; high, as well as the tension suffered in different days from Norwegian: & ldquo; We battled every day for a few seconds, you could not afford any misstep. I could not rest well and maintain tranquility & agrave; I usually stand out, as the competition was ongoing and not finished the same day, but I had to hold on, as the Tour de Ski lasts 10 days and & egrave; extremely tiring & rdquo ;.
Questions as to what are his plans for the World Falun and how preparer & agrave; to address them as best said the first thought now & egrave; a week off with mild workouts and especially enjoy a p & ograve; his two year old son, fearing the possibility & agrave; to race in Falun paired with Petter Northug in the team sprint.
