It will also be interesting to see if and how easily Kowalczyk can be pushed aside. Gene The commentator said she planned to miss the Tour de Ski this season. It must be exiting to belong to a nation with sufficient high quality skiers to enable them to focus on personal targets, the Tour, the World Cup or the World Champs/Olys. |

It must be exiting to belong to a nation with sufficient high quality skiers to enable them to focus on personal targets, the Tour, the World Cup or the World Champs/Olys. Bjørgen _can_ win multiple golds at home this year, I'm not too surprised that she's putting a higher priority on this than the Tour and/or the overall world cup. (And you pretty much have to do well in the Tour to have a chance on the overall title, right?) Terje -- - Terje.Mathisen at tmsw.no "almost all programming can be viewed as an exercise in caching" |

NRK mentioned a few times a small hillock about km before the stadium, just 5m high or less, which was supposedly named "Kalla-kullen", i.e. the Charlotte Kalla hill? The English commentator on Eurosport reported it was the same track they used last season, but with the inclusion of a small hill. I wonder. |

Kalla-kullen wasn't a hill at all, just a 2m depression followed by a 4-5 m uphill, i.e. the sort of bounce where a technically good skier can gain a few meters on others.
