The winner of the Tour de Ski last year & egrave; in net loss of form after the roaring start to the season, and over all & rsquo; & agrave impossibility; to win the Tour de Ski quest & rsquo; year, take over concerns for the World Cup in Falun.

Last year Therese Johaug won the Tour de Ski with a lead of 20 seconds on Astrid Jacobsen and 3 minutes on Heidi Weng, while Quest & rsquo; year 3 minutes & egrave; exactly the delay from the leader Marit Bjoergen, and saw the minute delay on the second Heidi Weng, sar & agrave; gi & agrave; tough fight for the square d & rsquo; honor.
& Ldquo; I must admit that I had moments better shape quest & rsquo; year. Surely I was much better before Christmas, but that state of form & egrave; hard to maintain long, considering that it's okay to train for the Tour de Ski, if I want to get in top form for the World Falun & rdquo; said the Johaug.
Not even l & rsquo; coach Egil Kristiansen has a real explanation for this loss of form: & ldquo; I do not have a good answer, but many had doubted that Marit (Bjoergen, nda) managed to close the gap with Therese before Christmas, so we seen how the situation turns around quickly. In any case we have already & agrave; a plan in anticipation of the World Cup, in fact after the Tour de Ski is that Therese Marit and Heidi (Wend, nda) will remain at rest until the races of Falun & rdquo ;.
