The Swede Frida Karlsson starts preparing for the cross-country skiing season – and despite her nosebleeds, she doesn’t stop smiling.
Munich/Östersund – Sport can be tough, no question about it. Muscle strains, torn ligaments, broken bones – the range of injuries that can occur, especially in competitive sports, is large.

Frida Karlsson starts preparing for cross country season
Seen in this way, Frida Karlsson got off lightly during a cross-country skiing session that she completed together with cross-country skier Moa Ilar. However, the unit did not run entirely without incident.
On Thursday, the Swede posted a post on Instagram showing her with a bloody nose. “Let’s start a new training year,” wrote the 23-year-old. In addition, she added a smiley smile and an SOS emoji.

While the second picture shows a close-up of Karlsson’s face with a lot of blood, the first and third photos should calm worried fans. Karlsson, who only spoke a few days ago about the separation from her ex-boyfriend, can be seen on these with a big smile.
On the one hand, fans laugh at the three photos and leave comments: “More like a boxer or NHL player,” says one. Another writes: “Sport is dangerous”, another comment says: “Things that happen when you want too much”. Luckily Karlsson was able to laugh again.
The incident should therefore have fewer serious consequences than the mishap that she suffered in January 2021. During the Tour de Ski, one of the most prestigious events in the Winter sportsseason, Karlsson wanted to do fitness exercises in her hotel room.

While she was doing pull-ups on the door frame, it broke out and Karlsson slammed onto the floor. Although she was able to take part in the competition on painkillers, she had to end the freestyle race over 10 kilometers prematurely.
She then stated to the Swedish media that she had suffered a gluteal hemorrhage. “It’s totally unnecessary, I feel stupid,” she was told at the time The radio sport quoted. Her nosebleed is actually a minor thing in comparison.
In addition, a German biathlete spoke up after her messed up season and a break. (masc)
