When did you begin XC Skiing: When I was a kid. Then I stopped when I was 15 years old and started again when I was 24 years old.
What I love most about XC Skiing: Working towards a goal and trying to become better every day.
Favourite place to compete internationally: Goms. It’s such a beautiful place and I really love the tracks there. Even though I’ve had some really bad mistakes there, I’m looking forward to going back and hopefully finally make every piece fall into place.
Favourite race style / distance: 10km classic
Career highlights / best results:

Team sprint in Trondheim with Rosie when we qualified for the finals is my absolute best memory.

Training advice: Do what you think is fun and the training you believe is the best for your self.
When I am not skiing / training I am: Doing all my hobbies - sewing, knitting, making photo albums. In April and off season I want to just live in the mountains in a tent and go skiing up and down cool mountains.
Pre-race playlist / song: Eye of the Tiger
