Clear Message to National Team Colleagues: - Each and Every One Must Reflect
Lotta Udnes Weng (28) hopes both she and the rest of the Norwegian cross-country skiing team have learned from last year.
In light of last year’s disappointing results, Udnes Weng expressed the need for each athlete to examine their individual efforts and strategies. She noted that their preparations heading into the previous season were similar to those in the successful 2022/23 season, but the outcomes did not match.
"Each and every one must reflect on what went wrong for them. I believe many of us got too eager and just wanted more and more. That led to exhaustion, and the results only went in one direction," she stated before the World Cup opener in Ruka.
With the World Championships in Trondheim on the horizon, she emphasizes the significance of performing well at this event, stating, "It’s something I have thought about for the last two years. Competing there in my best form is the main goal - being able to take a medal at a World Championship is a huge dream."
She and her twin sister Tiril are particularly focused on ensuring that their experiences from last season lead to better results this year, especially heading into the critical months of January and February. Weng and her sister have even relocated to Trondheim as part of their preparation for the championships, showcasing their commitment to achieving success in their home environment.
