Poromaa's Victory: "Couldn’t See Much – It Was Black Before My Eyes"

After securing his first career World Cup win, an elated William Poromaa spoke to Radiosporten. "I couldn’t see much upon finishing – it was quite dark before my eyes. It was firmly decided in my mind what I needed to do," Poromaa shared.

The top Norwegian competitors were absent from the race in France's Les Rousses (due to the Norwegian Championships), allowing William Poromaa to clinch victory in the 20 km long mass start classic style race.
