Peppe Femling competed with Anna Magnusson in the last race of her career.
Then the partner shot home the SM gold for the couple.
– I will miss him, says Magnusson.
The gold was secured by a flawless finish by Magnusson on the shooting range.
The 28-year-old made it to the finish with a half-minute margin down to the nearest chasing duo – and went into the boyfriend’s arms and received a kiss on the neck.
– It was very nice. I managed a perfect last stretch, but Peppe gave me a good starting position, says Magnusson in SVT.
“A lot of feelings”
Now the career is over for 32-year-old Femling.
– There have been many “lasts” in recent days, but now it’s really done. There were a lot of emotions last week and now you are mostly here enjoying yourself. It has been a nice ending, says Peppe Femling.
For the partner, the career continues.
– I will miss him. We have lived together (even out on the competition trips) and spent an incredible amount of time together. So it will be a different everyday life for me, says Anna Magnusson.
Hanna Öberg once morest the men
The couple, who represent Piteå’s biathlon club, had wanted to run the relay together. As a result, Hanna and Elvira Öberg formed the club’s second team.
And that Hanna had to go once morest the men. Something that SVT’s expert Helena Ekholm said she had not seen before.
– It was a bit shaky the first shot, but I think it was great fun. I absolutely did not think that we would be as high as we were, says Hanna Öberg.
The Öberg sisters finished fifth.
