Swedish multi-sport athlete who has achieved unprecedented success across six different mountain and endurance sports. Widely considered the greatest orienteer of all time with 23 World Championship gold medals, equaling Simone Niggli-Luder's record. Beyond orienteering, she has also won world championships in ski orienteering (10 golds), skyrunning, trail running, ski mountaineering, and SkySnow. Her dominance includes winning the Orienteering World Cup nine consecutive times (2014-2023) and setting a record of 11 consecutive World Championship gold medals (2018-2022). In trail running, she captured gold in the 45K Short Trail at the 2025 World Mountain and Trail Running Championships by a dominant 34-minute margin.
