Norwegian Cross-Country Skier Helene Marie Fossesholm Talks Support from Ebba Andersson

Norwegian cross-country skier Helene Marie Fossesholm talks about the support she received during her recovery from a serious knee injury, particularly highlighting the help from her Swedish competitor, Ebba Andersson.

Fossesholm sustained her injury during a football match in September, which could have sidelined her for up to six months. However, she shared the good news that she will avoid surgery and hopes to be back in competition after Christmas.

She expresses immense gratitude to Andersson, stating, "Ebba is a fantastic girl who cares deeply for both Norwegian and Swedish athletes. She is genuinely kind."

Fossesholm is now focused on rebuilding her strength and has set her sights on competing at the World Championships in Trondheim, recognizing the need to take each day as it comes while remaining ambitious about her dreams of competing at home.
