ATHLETE QUOTES

Marit Bjoergen, NOR
I hope to carry on good results. I feel in a great shape and I feel that nothing can stop me. There are many seconds between three of us tomorrow. I have a comfortable gap and I can focus only on my performance.

Therese Johaug, NOR
It was a good day. I am happy to be back on the podium and claim second place. Marit was very strong today. I have to stay focused tomorrow. I think it will be an individual start competition for all three of us.

Heidi Weng, NOR
I was slow at the beginning but then I could gain some speed. I hope I will have a good race tomorrow. I know Therese will be fast tomorrow and will be trying to gain seconds. I hope I will be able to keep the pace high.
