Johannes Klebo contracted coronavirus before the start of the ski season

Five-time Olympic cross-country ski champion, Norwegian Johannes Klebo was infected with the coronavirus.

On Monday, the 27-year-old interrupted his training camp in Italy and returned to Norway, where he tested positive for COVID-19.

— I was diagnosed with Covid. I’m not bedridden, but I’m not in good health either. This means I haven’t trained since Sunday when I felt like my body wasn’t up to par. Now I hope to be able to eliminate the virus from my body as quickly as possible,” Klebo quotes. VG .

The ski season will begin in Beitostolen, Norway, where the first stage of the World Cup will take place from November 17-19. The second stage will take place next weekend in Finnish Ruka.

“It is too early to say what consequences this will have on the start of the season. Beitostolen and Ruka have become more precarious, but let’s see how quickly I get rid of this infection. The goal is still to start the season in Beitostolen, but it is too early to draw conclusions. The most important thing now is to heal. At the end of the day, I’m 100% dependent on how my body works,” Klebo added.
