The race included prologue, heats and c, b and a-finals.

– It’s always good to compete. We appreciate that and that’s why we often end a camp with a competition, said national team Chief Ã…ge Skinstad.

He liked what he observed at the camp and many of the athletes showed that the summer training is going well.

– Marit was very impressive today. She was in a class by herself, said Skinstad.
The competition among the men was a lot tighter and Rœnning edged Østensen and Pettersen in a photo finish.

Skinnstad said that the camp was very successful and that he had never experienced better skiing conditions in June at Sognefjellet.

– That includes abroad. The skiing was incredible except for on Thursday, said Ã…ge Skinstad.
Next up before “summer vacation” for the national team is a dryland camp in Kragerœ and Oslo for the women’s team while the men’s team will do a camp in Petter Northug’s hometown Mosvik.
