Location: Östersund, SWE
Three races in three days, and a better result in each one. The international rollerski races in Östersund started on Friday night with a 12.4-km skate race, in which I placed an abysmal 26th place. Saturday around noon, we competed in a sprint race, in which I missed four of my ten shots to finish in 18th place. Today, in a true pursuit race where the starts were based on yesterday's sprint results, I missed only one shot (in my first standing stage) to climb from 18th to 11th place at the finish. I had the sixth fastest time of the day, which was the best for the U.S. Check out the results here. And check out images in the new gallery.
