Helena Jansson - World of O Runners

Profile: Helena Jansson
Country	Sweden
Info	Junior-star with six medals from 4 JWOC-years. Missed out on the individual medals in her last year as a junior, but took the step to senior class in impressive fashion being 8th and 11th at EOC 2006. Impressive orienteering technique, constantly improving her running with a tough training regime made by her coach Harri Viinimäki. Two gold medals at NOC 2007, and a relay silver in WOC 2007. Some injuryproblems in early 2008, but her first senior-title (expect NOC) came at EOC 2008 with a relay gold, Jansson running the last leg. The biggest star among the Swedish women, and the only one who has beaten Minna Kauppi in a World Cup race ahead of WOC, taking the NOC-gold on middle distance in Finland. Last updated August 2009
