The bright picture book weather on almost all days of the competition created a cheerful atmosphere among the visitors from all over the world and the athletes were also enthusiastic about the local conditions.

It was the calm before the storm when the athletes prepared for the coming days on the first day of the World Championships - 1,300 media representatives and journalists opened their quarters in the press centre and the restaurateurs of the Nordic Mile diligently filled their stands.
