She has left the national team’s training group.
Now Maja Dahlqvist can also move – to Norway.
– I’m hungry, she says to NRK.
Maja Dahlqvist is one of several Swedish stars who during the year chose to leave the Swedish national team’s training group. Instead, she has started a venture of her own, which enables training on her own terms, just as Frida Karlsson and Linn Svahn have done.
Can leave Sweden
It’s certainly not a very long pre-season, but Maja Dahlqvist has still shown that she’s in good shape, when she scored great results in roller skiing competitions in Norway this weekend. She won the sprint and came fifth in ten kilometers during the “Top Sports Week” in Trondheim.
And Maja Dahlqvist is not only satisfied with her own results – she seems to have had a blast with where the competitions were held. Now the star is open to settling in Norway permanently.
– It has been very good. I want to move to Trondheim now. I have heard so much good about the training here and have had a good experience, she tells NRK.
“The best place to train”
Maja Dahlqvist’s boyfriend, the American Kevin Bolger, is also a professional skier and has spent a lot of time in Trondheim.
– He has been here for five summers and trained and thought it was the best place to train. And now that I’ve been here, I think it’s been nice, says Dahlqvist.
NRK asks Dahlqvist whether or not she is serious about moving to Norway, and she then answers that it could be so, so much for Bolger’s training opportunities.
– It’s a bit of both and maybe, it might be that I don’t move at all, but that I get moved, she says.
