Anders Aukland captured silver in the 50-kilometer at Worlds last winter, but got the majority of the season ruined due to illness. He is now looking forward to fight for medals again.
Aukland Looking Forward To The Season Start
FasterSkier · October 4, 2005
Many were surprised when Aukland captured silver in the 50-kilometer at Worlds in Oberstdorf. He had been bothered by mono and poor World Cup results prior to Worlds.
The race ended with only Norwegians on the podium. Estil captured Norway’s first World’s gold on that distance since Gjermund Eggen’s triumph in the 1966 Oslo Worlds. Odd-Bjorn Hjelmeset captured the bronze medal.
– It was a very important race for me. It meant a lot for my motivation, explains Aukland.
