I had a solid race at todays worlds in Canada. After about 2 hours of suffering I finished 19th. I had good sensations and rode smart. With 2 laps to go I had about 20sec up to 14th, tried to close that gap but all I got was biog cramps. I had to take it easy for a while and managed to finish the race without any major problem.
I am happy to finish a problematic season with a good result. This year has been far from what I was hoping in the beginning of the year. When I broke my hand in Houffalize in may I lost a lot of self confidence and the results have been rather up and down.
A big thank you for all the support I got; you all know who you are! This result makes it a lot easier to go into the winter period with the head high. I said before this year that I wanted to race in the top 10. It hasn´t happened but I go for it next year.
All for now/ Emil
I will not race the relay at worlds tomorrow. I have super form but my last performances has been rather up and down and we feel like it´s a lot better to let Magnus Darvell, who as showed great form to race. Sweden have a super team and they will go hard for it! Go guys!
The course is super here. Tecnical and very high intensity. I like it! I am still frustrated about my racing going so up and down, but I think positive, it can all change very quick.

Riding so bad in races, and I feel like a big rollercoaster. Up, down and everywhere where I don´t want to ride. I know I am in good condition physically, but mentally my body completely block it self and I cant get the power out in the legs while racing. The year has been far from what I expected from myself and I feel disappointed. I am not the man that gives up that easily and I will fight my way back into it again. A big thanks to all the people that believe in me, and I will try my very best to do a good worlds next week. Ciao/ E
