Frida Karlsson is in hard training for next season.
But she now reveals that she is also investing in making an appearance – in a completely different sport.
– We’ll see if I get selected, she says to Tidningen Ångermanland.
Frida Karlsson is coming off a strong season but is already in serious training for the coming winter. It’s not just any season that awaits, when the World Ski Championships are decided in Norway, with crowded stands and a lot of prestige at stake.
Training at home
Although it has not been confirmed yet, there is a lot of evidence that Therese Johaug is making a notable comeback, which puts even greater pressure on Frida Karlsson and the other Swedish stars. After several trips to various mountains around Europe, Frida Karlsson is now at home in Sollefteå, where she thrives best.
Frida Karlsson trains several times a day, and she believes that she trains best in Sollefteå.
– Even though there is a lot of focus on training right now, I try to catch up on a bit of other things as well. An afternoon out on the golf course is never wrong and I will actually do a competition there too with dad (read Leif Medin), she says to Tidningen Ångermanland.
Want to play – in another sport
But it’s not just skiing and golf that applies to Karlsson. She also reveals that during the summer, if everything goes as she wants, she will make an appearance in a completely different sport – namely football. Big sister Fanny and little sister Hannah play in the Remsle UIF FF team.
– I actually have new football boots. But I have to do some training first and then you’ll see if you get selected, she says.
Soon, Frida Karlsson’s training will be enhanced by the fact that the personal trainer Per Nilsson, who is also the coach of the German women’s team, will come to Sollefteå.
– I’m really looking forward to training with Per on site in Sollefteå. It will be intense but I am so looking forward to it. While it will be fun to just hang out with him.
