Üldinfo

I am a double Olympic winner and world champion in cross-country skiing. The years in top-level sports have taught me perseverance and consistency. I have worked hard for my goals for all my life, and I am ready to face new challenges with exactly the same commitment.
I see it as my mission to promote the health and exercise of the Estonian children. The health of the next generations depends on us. The future of our children is in our hands.
