The relays are expected to be one of many highlights at the World Ski Championships in Oberstdorf at the end of February.

Linn Svahn hopes to be one of those who takes one of the coveted places in the relay team.

- It is tough to join a relay team for Sweden but I will try to show that I have the conditions to be able to walk a relay distance.

I am absolutely prepared to show that I am interested and then it is important that I do something sensible out on the track, she says to SVT Sport.

Do you most want the last leg?

- I take the distance I am assigned.

But I like the last stretch.

Both shooting star Helene-Marie Fossesholm and veteran Heidi Weng have said that they are happy to meet Svahn on just one last stretch.

- It feels good that they want to see me on the last stretch because it is an exciting stage.

No matter who it is, I think it will be a good fight.

It might even be Johaug.

She has driven a final distance, says Linn Svahn.
