Linn about the tribute
When Svahn hears what Mogren, with an Olympic gold and four World Cup golds in cross-country skiing, said about her, she is moved.
– Oh, that was nice. I decided that if I am fresh in the final and feel that I have control in the first hill then I will go for it and give everything I have on the second hill – and not hesitate. Just check forward and not look back. And yes, it was good, she tells the radio channel.
