The Devon Kershaw Show: Living Large in Lahti and a Wee Bit on Junior Worlds

FasterSkierFebruary 29, 2020

Post-Ski Tour 2020 it was back to the basics for the World Cup: Interval start classic races for the men and women. The local boy, Iivo Niskanen, still claims the 15 k classic as his race, especially when it goes down in Finland. For the women, Norway’s Therese Johaug pipped it out the win over Ebba Andersson of Sweden.

This was good solid racing in the 10 k and 15 k, respectively. Devon, by the way, is in Oberwiesenthal, Germany for the 2020 Junior/U23 Worlds. He’s there helping out the younger generation of Canadian athletes. So, needless to say, we take a dive into Junior World’s coverage as well — today’s race was a skate sprint for the juniors.
