Lenzerheide (Dagbladet): – It has nothing to do with the physical to do, it’s just …. nothing to talk about really, said Heidi Weng for third place at the start trap 15 km of Lenzerheide today.
As expected, she could not do anything with sovereign Therese Johaug today, but had also lost to Ingvild Flugstad Østberg.
– I was going to open quietly, but I managed the course not. I joined on the run, and used well for much effort on first round. Eventually I realized that I had to calm down for at all to get to the goal, said Weng.
As in other words – in the press zone after the race – even mentioned his mental state that some “vulnerable” at the moment.
– It has been a bit much, she says, without wanting to elaborate. But the breakup with her boyfriend Emil Iversen before Christmas is it as a fact. So does the episode in Kuusamo, where she went in goal a round too early.
Becomes irritated
– I’m easily bored me and irritability during the day. After the sprint yesterday I was very annoyed. I was annoyed at myself because I made a tactical error. But I let it go a little beyond Stina Nilsson. It was stupid of me. Ten minutes after I regretted, and today I asked her to apologize. She just smiled and laughed and said that everything was ok, says Weng
– What now?
– I just have to take the time I need, so I think I will come back and be satisfied with bits and bobs. I am now a little too vulnerable.
– Would you be happy with a podium at the Tour de Ski?
– If I had it I would probably have been happy indeed.
Unable drink
Heidi Weng got a heavy run yesterday but cheered anyway for third place.
– I’m not better than this now either, but is all the more impressed Therese and Ingvild says Weng, who was “shut up” because she drank too little during the 15-kilometer today.
– I can not get in me enough fluids. I must practice it there, I think. I can not get it until. I drink, I do not breathe properly, I lose my breath. But I’m thirsty, so I have to drink. When I shall swallow it gladly go the wrong way, it is a bit disgusting.
– But where shall I practice and get to. I’ll get it and get properly back, she says to Dagbladet.
