A promising run from Topi Raitase Joonas Rinne and Santtu
Raitanen didn’t sweat after his run

According to Topi Raitanen, the run felt only slightly better than the previous two races. In them, the times dropped to 8:43.46 and 8:39.93.

– Click in the right direction. Still power though. Couldn’t stress against acid in the same way. Now we have to make the right decisions, and fortunately there is still time, Raitanen referred to the World Cup.

Raitanen says that in June it felt like there was no competition at all.

– Now let’s see what to do. There are a few competitions or we do a training period and calmly prepare for the World Championships.

Does less than 8.30 bring a small sigh of relief?

– Well, a small one. That final draw is not yet familiar. There is no such buffering in the legs yet.

Raita was interviewed by Petra Manner
