On
the
way
back
home
from
St.
Moritz
my throat
didn't
feel
good.
The
next
morning
I saw
a doctor
and
he told
me I
had
a virus.
He told
me to
take
it easy
for
a few
days
and
then
I would
be fine.
No risk
before
the
Olympics!
Therefore
I just
walked
an easy
3.000m
at the
Nationals
the
day
after.
I was
tired
from the
altitude
camp so
some easy
days would
do good.
Normally
I feel
good the
first
days after
altitude
and then
I have
5-6 days
where
I feel
bad in
training.
This
time
I felt
bad
for
almost
two
weeks!
Probably
a combination
of being
tired
after
the
training
camp
and
having
the
virus.
The
last
few
days
have
gone
better.
My training
is coming
along
and
now
I am
starting
to look
forward
to go
to China
for
the
Olympics.
Tuesday
last
week
I flew
to Oslo
together
with
my brother
Erik
and
coach
Stephan
to pick
up our
Olympic
gear
from
Olympiatoppen
(NOR
NOC
Elite
sports
program).
It was
a lot
of stuff
and
my opinion
is that
they
have
done
a good
job
this
time
:-)
The
first
2 weeks
after
we got
back
home
from
altitude
we have
had
perfect
weather!
25-31
degrees,
humidity
between
60 and
75 and
sun,
sun,
sun!
Of course
it's
not
so easy
to train
under
these
conditions,
but
it has
been
the
best
way
to prepare
for
the
Olympics.
The
last
couple
of days
we have
had
colder
weather
with
rain
again
and
that
has
probably
been
good
- now
I can
recover
from
the
heat
at home
in Norway
and
be ready
for
what
will
come
in China
:-)
On
Sunday
(3rd
of Aug.)
my brother
Erik
Tysse
and
our
coach
Stephan
Plätzer
will
go to
China,
I will
stay
home
a few
more
days
before
I go
to China
next
Friday
(8th
of August).
When
I arrive
in Beijing
on the
9th.
I will
go to
our
pre
camp
in Tianjin
and
stay
there
until
the
13th.
of August.
From
then
on I
will
be in
the
Olympic
Village
in Beijing.
I will
do my
best
to update
everyone
as often
as I
can
during
my stay
in China.
