That was very very smart from Jessie Dee to skip the Skiathlon. But, seriously what an incredible effort she just produced. Bravo Jessie

Believe it or not, this will be only third race (out of 14), with no medal for Norway (after ladies CC Sprint and Men's SJ Normal Hill).

Jaque going strong, Bruna still on schedule.

4,5km and still going excellent for both Jaque and Bruna!

 

 

Hoping right now Bruna is still sticking to the plan of keeping things under control, even though she might feel like she could go faster.

That’s why the season lasts as long as it does. Diggens wasn’t doing anything much back in December, then blew up in the Tour de Ski.  Yet here she is.

 

And well done  Franchi: long time since we saw an Italian lady on the front page.

Mightily impressed by Jaque, again

76th out of 80, that's four positions better than expected, and an awesome finish with all the emotions of an awesome world championships coming out  

 

Going home tomorrow, but what an amazing week this has been!

The Brazilian federation asked for a short statement from her about Sunday's team sprint, we kind of had to remind them that she nearly died a year ago, because no word about a comeback or anything was mentioned in any article or something from them...so at least now it's mentioned in their team sprint article (because we reminded them about it)

I think they are rather underestimating the whole thing

Jaque Mourao finished just behind  Skinder and Kaleta which tells you more about the state of Polish cross country than anything else.

 

30th place for Federica Sanfilippo
