Cross-country skiing in Ruka
Stadlober takes fifth top 10 place for the ÖSV team
Teresa Stadlober finished a good seventh in the 20 km mass start race in Ruka, bringing the ÖSV team five top 10 finishes on the opening weekend.
After a spectacular finish in the women's race, the US American Jessie Diggins came in 0.3 seconds ahead of Sweden's Jonna Sundling and 2.5 seconds ahead of Norway's Heidi Weng, who denied her compatriot Therese Johaug a podium finish on her comeback weekend. Stadlober crossed the finish line 20.5 seconds behind Diggins.
"That is surprising"
"I am very satisfied. That was better than in the classic on Friday, which is surprising," said Stadlober in the ORF interview, explaining why. "I put a lot of emphasis on improving my skating in the summer and you could see that today. A really cool start to the new World Cup season for me."
The work on the push was also evident on the flat and in the finish sprint. Stadlober was in a group up to tenth place, she finished seventh. "We have so many top 10 results for Austrian cross-country skiing, it's really nice to start the season like this."
