Your first World Cup victory, how was the 15K for you?
Yeah, I think it was a very tough race and my body felt like expected after the last day and the four runs I had, but I'm so happy to have my first victory here in Valdivia. These are one of my favorite tracks in the World Cup, and especially I had a lot of family and my boyfriend at the track, and that was very motivating.
It's actually the first victory for a German lady since 2009. What do you think this means for the German people?
Yeah, I think a lot. I know that there are a lot of people who cheered at the television, and I think they are very happy, especially the little cross-country skiers are very motivated.
Congratulations so much, Katrina.
Thanks.
