Charlotte Kalla (SWE)
"I felt really good right from the start, and I had good skis. I knew that I need a easy classic, before the ski exchange skate. Epecially when I know how the uphills here are, it’s a very tough and long climb out of the stadium.
It felt good, and when I was on that last climb I felt fine, but didn’t know what Heidi could not follow me"
Heidi Weng (NOR)
"In the the classic I felt a bit bad, I didn’t think I skied that fast. I thought that I would be able to go ahead on the classic part.
Skating was really tough. I’m glad a held myself back a little, because Charlotte got really strong on the skating part, and on that last hill I knew she would go ahead. She was in an another league. She is in a very good shape. "
Ragnhild Haga (NOR)
I"t was a bit messy race. I was not satisfied with the first round classic, but I got a bit better after that and I was able to stay in contact with the leader.
I felt stronger when we started with freestyle, but then I broke my pole in the last hill and I thought it was over for me regarding a podium position, but then I got a new one from the one of our coaches, and he told me that it was still possible."
