“It tastes hot. Now I’m very sorry, no one will remember the fourth place in a year. How many fourth places in the Olympics are being talked about? ” she asked herself a bit in the mixing zone.

However, these were the elite Norwegian biathletes and famous runners Tiril Eckhoff and Marte Olsbu Röiseland: “I was hoping, I was fighting to the end. We have seen in previous races that anything is possible here. I tried, but they just planned the forces well. “
After the race, she blamed her performance on the shooting range: “I screwed up there,” she stated, but the medalists also made four mistakes in difficult wind conditions. “Well, it wanted to shoot even better,” she stressed with tears on her face.

“It was zero at bedtime, but I was still able to guard the last item while standing,” she added and hurried to the bowels of the Changjia biathlon stadium. “I want to go home now.”
