Cross -country skier Perttu Hyvärinen has not recovered from his illness in such a condition that he could ski in the Lahti World Cup.
Skiing of the World Skiing Championships due to illness Perttu Hyvärinen Has not recovered yet. Hyvärinen confirms to Sports that he will not be seen in addition to Oslo’s weekend in the Lahti World Cup.
– I’m not skiing in Lahti fifty. There is no seam to ski there well, Hyvärinen confirms to Sports.
Hyvärinen’s season has been full of challenges. Already in November, the skier suffered ankle injury when one ligament broke and two ripped. He eventually skied only four World Cup competitions, but before the World Championships became ill with A-influenza and Rhinovirus.
– The disease really taxed a lot. There was nothing for it, it was just surprisingly hard. A couple of weeks came a completely unparalleled clip. It’s not right away from the World Cup, says Hyvärinen.
According to Hyvärinen, the disease was so dramatically affected that he had nothing to do with the World Cup.
-Quality exercises have not been done completely, so there is nothing to do with the World Cup. Then let’s look at the spring if those rags are twisted. Let’s see what it looks like.
Looks next winter
After the Lahti World Cup, the Finnish Cup competition in Iisalmi in late March and the following week in Taivalkoski. Hyvärinen wonders that he could possibly participate in either competition.
– Let’s try to get back to the track properly and do some good power exercises. However, the eyes are already aimed at next winter.
According to Savolainen, in late winter, there is no greater importance.
– Let’s see if I could get a tune that I could ski even in Taivalkoski. I don’t take such great pressure anymore. Yes, there has been so much pressure this winter that I have to blow sometimes.
33-year-old Hyvärinen has already been able to treat this winter with a bit of humor, even though it has been tested during the season.
– After all, this has been a really tight winter. Everything has been completely in the game and has made big solutions for the World Cup. Everything has been done and invested terribly and the result is nothing.
– Humor has really been put to the test this winter, but this is our profession.
Hyvärinen’s eyes have already turned to the future.
– Let’s try to control the situation again and the body is to make it possible to start the training season.
