It means a lot for me to win here twice in Otepää. My shape has been perfect. I was especially strong in the last lap. I had a good summer and preparation. First races were not perfect for me but since the Tour I have been in really good shape. It will be difficult to keep these good results. I got information about how Devon was fast. I was focusing on my pace and my own race. I will have a week off. I will be at home in Davos and I will train there. My next start will be in Rybinsk.

I must say I fell in love with Otepää tracks. It was very hard today. I was very surprised at the beginning when I heard Devon was so fast. I was just hoping he cannot keep the high pace all the way through. It was a tough between me and Devon. The key to success was a good kick and skis. I think the difference me and Devon was just I was more lucky today. After Tour de Ski I was totally exhausted. I will skip World Cup in Rybinsk. I will be training two weeks and take part in the Czech nationals. Then I will start at the World Cup in Otepää.

 I felt super today. For sure I started little bit too hard,  but I was very motivated after I broke the pole in yesterday's qualifier. I am really happy to finish third today. I really love the course here and I personally think it is the hardest classical course on the World Cup. The strongest and fits guy wins, there is now hiding on this course, it  tests your shape. It feels really great to be on third after fourth place at Tour de Ski and Davos sprint. My personal goal is to be better in Falun because I have been every time so bad at World Cup final.
