Federer91 2,114 Posted November 26, 2016 #32 Share Posted November 26, 2016 Great debut for Klaebo. The inexperience cost him the win, but the future is very bright for him. Goldberg as a reserve getting the win shows once again how monstrous team Norge is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly that, I think he was a little too eager to dominate all the heats before the final If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

hckošice 13,131 Posted November 26, 2016 Author #34 Share Posted November 26, 2016 Nilsson and Golberg winners in Ruka season opener Stina Nilsson SWE wins in Ruka Stina Nilsson of Sweden and Paal Golberg of Norway have won the opening competitions of the Viessmann FIS World Cup Cross-Country 2016-17 season in Ruka, Finland. Snow fell throughout the competition creating challenging conditions for the athletes as they raced around the 1.4 km course. As the heats progressed the final climb back to the stadium saw the competitors in the herringbone technique unable to stay in the tracks. Both Nilsson and Golberg managed the climb each round and proved strongest on the final stretch to the finish. For Nilsson it was her first ever win in classic technique. Just one year ago she took second place to Norway's Maiken Caspersen Falla but got her revenge today with Falla taking second place. In third was Heidi Weng of Norway. On the men's side Paal Golberg of Norway who learned just 3 days ago that he would be traveling to Ruka took the first win of the season. Golberg who trains outside the National Team was brought to Ruka in replacement for Petter Northug Jr in the sprint and recorded his 4th World Cup victory. In second place from Sweden was Calle Halfvarsson grabbing his first ever World Cup podium in a classic sprint. In third place another Norwegian reserve made good on his opportunity to start in Ruka. Johannes Klaebo the young rising star on the team was announced Tuesday as the replacement for an ill Eirik Brandsdal, and captured his first ever World Cup podium. Competition resumes tomorrow with 10/15 km interval start competitions.
