Have you spent much time skiing in North America? What is your impression of<br />
Cross-Country ski racing in North America? </b><br />
Just one time, Olympic Games in Salt Lake, but you have good possibilities for<br />

Can you give a few words of advice on training or racing to our readers, perhaps<br />
young skiers especially?</b><br />
Have patience, you can't be a World Cup racer over a night. Listen to your body,<br />

to be best! </p>
