Athlete profile: Maja Alm

Last updated August 2011

Very good sprinter who is one of the outsiders to WOC medals in sprint - even the gold medal on a perfect day. Got her big breakthrough in the European Champs in 2010 with a bronze medal at the sprint. Continued her great 2010 season with a 4th place in the overall Nordic Orienteering Tour after 5th and 4th spot in the two first races. Her speciality is sprint, but is also a very good relay runner. Winning the middle at the Nordic Champs 2007 (junior), and taking a bronze medal at the sprint at JWOC. Did not run WOC 2008 as she was focusing on JWOC only, but did not succeed individually in JWOC 2008.
