Frida Karlsson finished 10th in last week's sprint in Ruka and then followed that up by taking home the pursuit start two days later.

And on Tuesday, the news came that the 23-year-old would run all the races in Lillehammer.

When she was asked after today's eighth place in 10 kilometers, however, it sounds different.

- I haven't had time to think that far, she says.

"Discussions about the rest of the week"

After the race, Karlsson spoke with his coach, also national team coach for Germany, Per Nilsson.

- There was more discussion about the feeling of the race today and then there was some discussion about the remaining race this week - whether she should drive tomorrow or not, he says.

What do you think?

- It is hard to say.

It's a tough race schedule.

If it didn't feel great today, maybe I would recommend not riding the sprint tomorrow if I look at the rest of the week and next week.

But she would have a chat with the team and look over a bit, says Nilsson.
