I have some results on the course I am more proud of. I was a team member when Malmo won the Swedish championship in 2002 and we followed that up with a bronze medal in the European Cup in Eibenstock same year.
I also have two bronze medals the Swedish championship, one on a Felt (2003) on EB (2001).
