Useriu said at his arrival in Romania that he was surprised by the warm weather from the North Pole, with temperatures of -15 degrees compared with the last years when were registered -32 degrees.
„I do what I like, what I know it’s best. It was the hardest track for me because I was sure that I knew everything, but I encountered many surprises. It was a half new track, there were 280 km on ice, which made the contest pretty hard. I encountered two storms pretty aggressive and a final one. What was surprising was the weather, which was pretty warm compared with the last year, minus 11- minus 15 degrees, compared with minus 32 degrees, which was abnormal for the respective area. I hated the Ice Road, it was not easy. There were moments when a toe from my left foot was freezing, I had injuries at my feet. I knew what was ahead of me and I managed the situation until the end of the competition,” said Useriu.
He said that he is feeling tired because he didn’t have time for recovery and made a treatment with antibiotics for some infections.
Useriu added that he wants to take time to rest .
„Afterwards I will go for 30 days in Himalaya, what will follow I don’t know. For me it will also be a surprise. I think I will take a break from the competition, but I’m not sure, because you never know. I think I’ll do also something else, I had this experience three times, I already know how it’s like there, there will be nothing new the next year, maybe the temperatures will be higher and at some point it will be a normal contest. If the temperatures are positive, the contest doesn’t have any attraction,” said Useriu.
