Snorre Pedersen Bjerke and Desire are the new champions of Norwegian skeleton

During the same weekend of the national championships bob in Lillehammer, were awarded the titles of the Norwegian skeleton.

Within the male crown of national champion went for the second consecutive year the ultra forty Snorre Pedersen, husband of the most famous Olympic champion Maya Pedersen-Bieri skeleton in Turin 2006. Pedersen made the difference during the first run where he ripped by far the best time of the day and in the final round he administered the advantage gained against his only real opponent of the race, Alexander Hansen, now a place of honor with 66 cents behind the leader. Hansen aside, all the other seven competitors at the start have been heavily delayed by the winner, the third in the standings Fredrik Lerbakken has undergone a gap of more than a second and a half from Pedersen. If the men's race saw the starting line a large number of athletes, the test instead had only one female protagonist at the start Desire Bjerke. Almost quarantatreenne of Kråkerøy abandoned international competitions after completion of the Vancouver 2010 Olympics, but decided to take part in the national championships purely for entertainment purposes.
