Therese Johaug will participate in the Norwegian athletics championships, starting on Sunday 4 August at the 10000-meter test on the track.
A choice that motivates the same technician of the 31-year-old world and Olympic multi-champion: "We wanted him to do the 5,000, certainly more suitable, but we needed a minimum not obtainable - explains Pal Gunnar Mikkelsplass - On the 10 thousand was not needed a time limit, it will certainly be fun for Therese and I believe that such training is also important for the mind, to vary the summer routine ".
Johaug ran a 10 km in 33''36 "last season and, in the family of the Norwegian champion, there is another discipline on which to" invest ". Therese's 17-year-old cousin, Gyda Westvold Hansen, made her debut in the women's special jump, participating in the first race of the Summer Grand Prix in Hinterzarten. For her, an excellent 22nd place among the big names of the world circuit.
