Nordic skiing is inherently a fun thing to do. This helps explain how/why these athletes can train year-round for this sport at a high intensity over long periods of time.
Of course not. What makes you think that? There is no way the level magically increases drastically in just 2 years. The version of Johaug even from 8 years ago would destroy any of the best women today. It's limited how much you can maximize the physiology. The human body is the same now as 10 years ago. Believing that any of today's women in the World Cup are better than Johaug was is delusional. She is an absolute freak of nature.
dang, how much does a roller skate ski treadmill cost, I want one. They must be pretty rare, don't get any hits on a google search that show a price, so I'm sure they're out of my price range for being just a recreational skier.
A full wide skate treadmill goes for 1 million Norwegian kroners, but I don’t how much that is in dollars. But the classic treadmill, abilica XC classic is not that expensive.
She kicked butt in a distance race at the Norwegian Championships a few weeks ago. (Laukli was second.). I’d bet she comes out of retirement for the Worlds in Trondheim next year.
