Uh, oh, yes.

It, uh, have been a crazy day with, uh, a lot of emotions and, uh, yeah, I had a good start on my race until the arena passage, and, uh, then I, uh, couldn't find my, uh, uh, control nine, and I made a big mistake, and then it was just so push, uh, through the last, uh, controls to, uh, lose, uh, as, uh, uh, less as, uh, time, uh, that, uh, I could.

Uh, so then when I, I was in finish, I was, uh, of course, uh, a bit sad and, uh, uh, then it was just to cheer for, uh, Felicia and Freya who did amazing, uh, races.

And, uh, it was, uh, incredible that it, uh, could be a gold in the end.
1:17
But, uh, how is it to run, uh, with those guys, uh, those guys, I say, those girls on, uh, two last legs? Uh, did you have any sleep, uh, before this, uh, relay at all?
1:26
[laughs] Uh, no.
1:28
I was, uh, very nervous, and, uh, it was, uh, like a dream to, uh, have the chance to, uh, run in, uh, the first, uh, Swedish team.
