The man is not human. He won so many races it's unbelievable. It's too bad it's very hard to find any info on him at all on the web. Same goes for all the great XC skiers. Almost zero info.
I do have one quesiton though. In the translation of his book it said he started serious training at age 15, but he was never really dominate as a junior (he came in 6th places etc). Anyone know why? His vo2max was something close to 90 wasn't it? That means it was probably over 70 before he even started training. Why wasn't he dominating when he was younger?
