Have you seen how convincingly Maja Dahlqvist and Alexander Terentyev won their respective FIS World Cup races on Friday?
We don’t claim to know how they were preparing for them – for the lack of specific coaching knowledge, clearly.
What we do know however, is that both had their significant others present in Ruka, at the starting lane. And that’s a significant factor, we are sure.
There are no scientific studies,sadly, as to how the presence of your loved one affects one’s race performance – but we are convinced that it does, in the most positive way.
