European Championship

This weekend I was competing again after 2 months competition brake. I was 13th on 1500m 20 on 500m and 19th on 1000m. Overall I was 18.

I did not have that little extra that I normally have, but I am happy for the 1500m.

Below you can see the results from the weekends competition

Finally I have an answer

I have not been writing on my blogg for 2 months now, I know a lot of people would like me to write. But I found that I did not want to write anthing until I got the final answer about the Olympics.
Now I got the answer from the Swedish Olympic Commitée that they are not sending me to the Olympics.

I did not make the goals that was set from the SOC, but I met up with the international demands set by ISU to compete at the Olympics and that is big!! I am proud to have made that spot for the Olympics. 2 months ago I was looking strong and I dont see why that would not happen again. I beleive it can happen!

I think in one way that not sending me to the Olympics was not positiv.
My goal is Sotji 2014 Olympics and Vancover would be a very important experience to learn from. I am getting better, stronger, faster and it will not be long until I can show that, in results as well.

I am not giving up and I am going to continue to follow my dreams and goals, and still be proud for what I have done in the past and what I want to do in the future.

"If you never take a chance, then you will never know if that chance was worth to take."

I find in some situations chances needs to be taken.

I would like to specially thank my parents for supporting me in many ways and also friends and others in my family. I am very thankfull to have so kind and supportive people around me.
Thank you!!!
