– Medal at Worlds is great. I’m happy with my race. It was a cat and mouse race. We were tied with one lap to go, but they were a little too fast in the sprint, said Bjerkeli Grœvdal to NTB.

– A very good race against to strong Kenayans. She ran shoulder to shoulder with them for most of the race, said team-leader Jœrund Ã…rdal.
