8 July 2024 at 11:27 Therese Johaug’s comeback decision will probably be made in August Therese Johaug is expected to make a final comeback decision in the first part of August, manager Jørn Ernst tells NTB. – I expect it to be the first part of August, after the holidays, writes Ernst in a message. In mid-June, Ernst told TV 2 that the plan was to make a decision before the summer, but that no concrete date had been set. When the Norwegian women’s national team was presented in April, Sjur Ole Svarstad confirmed to NTB that Johaug is welcome in the national team if she decides to aim for the WC on home soil. Marit Bjørgen and Pål Gunnar Mikkelsplass are employed as assistant coaches for the cross-country women. Johaug returned to the cross-country track with a bang when she took a superior gold in the NM three-mile in March. On 1 May, she won the Grue half-marathon with the strong time of 1.11.25. It was only 55 seconds behind the Norwegian Athletics Federation’s EC requirement for the distance. The 36-year-old from Dalsbygda took a superb victory in the Lofoten Skyrace at the weekend, almost ten minutes ahead of the next woman on the results list. Johaug has 14 World Cup and four Olympic gold medals in his career. Three of the Olympic golds came in Beijing two years ago. (NTB)
