Last Saturday (23rd Feb) we went to Seefeld for the men's and women's skiathlon in FIS Nordic World Ski Championships. We decided a long time ago that we wanted to see at least some competitions when it is the World Championsships and when Seefeld is only two hours from here. We chose to see skiathlon for two reasons, it was the only day when both the men and women competed (except for the sprint competitions) and I wanted to see Therese Johaug.

I lördags (23 februari) var vi i Seefeld för att se männens och kvinnornas skiathlon i skid-VM. Vi bestämde oss för ganska länge sen att vi ville se åtminstone en tävling eftersom det är VM och eftersom Seefeld ligger bara två timmars bilresa bort. Vi valde skiathlonen av två orsaker, det var den enda dagen då både männen och kvinnorna tävlade (bortsett från sprintrarna) och jag ville se Therese Johaug.

Taking into account the great races, especially the men's competition was very interesting an exciting, and the amazing weather I think we chose a good day. Unfortunately, Finland didn't get any medals, but I really found it nice that Sjur Roethe and Therese Johaug became the winners. For both of them the last couple of years have been really tough. As probably many people knows, Johaug was suspended 18 months for tested positive for the anabolic steroid clostebol, which was one of the substances in the lip balm she used as treatment for her sunburnt lips. Sjur Roethe, on the other hand, has been having lots of problems with his back and in 2017 he found out that he has spondyloartthritis, a rheumatic disease.

Med tanke på att tävlingarna var riktigt bra, speciellt männens skiathlon var väldigt intressant och spännande, och det fantastiska vädret jag tycker att vi valde en bra dag. Tyvärr lyckades inte Finland ta några medaljer, men jag tyckte verkligen att det var riktigt roligt att få se Sjur Roethe och Therese Johaug stå överst på prispallen. För båda har de senaste åren varit väldigt tuffa. Som antagligen många vet stängdes ju Johaug av i 18 månader efter att ha testats positivt för den anabola steroiden clostebol, en av substanserna i läppkrämen som hon använde på sin solbrända läpp. Sjur Roethe å andra sidan, har haft mycket problem med sin rygg och 2017 fick han reda på att han har spondylartrit, en reumatisk sjukdom.

It was also fun to be back in Seefeld itself, it was our forth time there, and it is really a very beautiful place.

Det var också roligt att vara tillbaka i Seefeld. Det var vårt fjärde besök där och det är verkligen en vacker plats.

Lots of fans everywhere
