You don't feel it's the Olympic Games because there are not a lot of people. You want to feel a lot of people on the last climb to help you. It's a little disappointing there aren't a lot of people here.

This silver is gold for me. I was really nervous before the start today because I'd been sick and didn't know how good I could be.

I've been skiing too many races this past week.

I'm not in good shape, so today was very hard.

I really don't want to do the 30km and just want to go home. I wasn't in good shape today because I've been sick and haven't been able to practice like I usually do. I'm a little bit disappointed with the way things have gone here but I'm pleased to have won the silver in the 10km race.
