After Jenny Rissveds with the 2016 Olympic victory After reaching the pinnacle of sporting success, the now 27-year-old Swede realised that there was more to life than just competitive sport. After a surprising end to his career in 2018 she had virtually disappeared from the scene for two years due to depression, as she openly and publicly admitted. Rissveds has been back on the World Cup circuit since 2019. With a focus on friendship, fun and lightness, she is bringing her vision of finding a healthy balance between top sporting performance and normal life to the world. Together with Kelsey Urban from the USA and Linn Gustafzzon from Sweden, she is living her ideal. In Albstadt, she celebrated with her newly assembled team and the new Ibis Exie not only their first World Cup race, but also their first podium finishes in the 2022 season - in the Short Track and Cross Country.
