Astrid Uhrenholdt Jacobsen is a new head of the Norwegian Sports Association’s committee of athletes. Which, effectively, means she is a new official representative of all Norwegian sportsmen and women.

With that title, an Olympic champion of PyeongChang 2018 also gins a seat on all-powerful Idrrettsstyret, a steering committee
that determines the direction of sport development in the country as we all as financial means to fund that.

A 32 year old had a good last season with several podiums at the World Cup and a silver at Worlds in Seefeld – she’s been selected for the main national team for 2019/20 and there is no word of career ending . It would be interesting to see how Astrid combines her training schedule and that of her new , effectively political, career.
