Johaug's Comeback - Competes in Tour de Ski

Therese Johaug will indeed participate in the Tour de Ski. Initially, the returning cross-country skiing star had dismissed the idea of competing in the tour, which takes place around the New Year.

However, she is now included in the Norwegian team for the Tour de Ski, as announced by the Norwegian Ski Federation in a press release.

Johaug commented that her successful start to the World Cup season may have influenced her decision. "I am way ahead of my schedule," said Johaug to Sveriges Radio after her recent competitions. She has achieved four podiums so far this season, with two wins in the World Cup.
