Thus, the WC in all-round will be in Inzell 9.-10. March is the last thing Pedersen does on the ice.
Pedersen has 47 podium places in the World Cup and 16 NM gold. But the WC gold in 2019 and the Olympic golds from 2018 and 2022 are the biggest.
– I have had a long and wonderful career on the ice rink. From child star to senior performer. I have been able to take part in all the biggest competitions. Olympics, WC, EC, everything you can experience on the ice rink. As a little boy, I sat and watched those who won Olympic and World Cup gold and dreamed that one day I could do the same, says Pedersen.
– Consider that I have fulfilled these dreams. Right from my senior World Cup debut in 2009, from junior WC gold to winning my first World Cup and WC and Olympic gold for seniors. There are wonderful memories that I will always remember.
