Read it in Finnish
He hopes that Vikersund will be the last championships he’ll attend on his career. He’s had so many difficulties and he is “starting to feel old and slow” as he describes in the interview. He thinks that he should have something else than ski jumping in his life right now, for example work, family and studies “like normal people”.
Since I’m an idiot, could someone help me how to watch NRK-online-TV? D: I’m dying to watch NM and pff, I just can’t get this to work…
Poor boys, really :( good thing Birk is already almost healthy, doesn’t sneeze so often :)
He keeps sneezing and it sounds so pathetic and sad, poor boy!
