– I’ll see he’s a failure if I don’t win the gold, he says.
Pictures of crying joy hysterically Perseus Karlstrom The Viking hat has become a classic from WC in Eugene.
But it didn’t take a day before the protagonist himself had to put it all behind him.
– The next day my coach said: Leave the restroom, now the European Commission is the one that applies. So no, I didn’t have time to celebrate my bronze at all. He says I can celebrate after the European Commission.
The plan is a big celebration.
“applied gold”
At EC in Munich, Perseus Karlström was a relative favorite of gold.
The Japanese who defeated him in the WC as well as the gold medalist in the 35 km, avoids the Italian Massimo Stano, who will only compete in the 20 km.
— Definitely the gold that applies on Tuesday, says Karlstrom.
– I’ll see it fails a bit if you can only grab a medal and it’s not a gold.

The loading was optimal.
The 32-year-old has been in high camp in Mexico for just over two weeks and is coming to Munich in good shape.

Expectations have fluctuated back and forth in recent days, but if they really want it, a heat wave of around 30 degrees could await them when Perseus sets out on a gold quest.
Lucky then, he has his tricks.
– It will be, as usual, a snow collar and a snowman in the cap, he says.
