Välkommen till SNO, Jonas!

Jonas Soldini kommer från Corpataux i den fransktalande delen av Schweiz. Han är född år 2000 och har därmed valt att inleda sin karriär i seniorklassen i SNO.  Under åren som junior har har han redan visat framfötterna, bland annat genom en 8:e plats på JVM-långdistansen 2019! Kort intervju:

Where do you live and what do you do for a living at the moment?
I live with my family in Corpataux, it’s a small village located in the French speaking part of Switzerland. I am currently in the gymnasium as an elite sportsman until July 2022.

Why did you choose SNO and what are you looking forward to the most in the club?
I chose SNO according to various established criteria. Firstly, I wanted a club located in Sweden to learn about Swedish culture and accessible fairly easily by transport (flight/train) so that I could come and do training courses in the area. In addition, I was looking for a club with good elite runners so that I could progress on the Nordic terrain. Finally, I would like to be able to join the SNO team to take part in the big relays 😊

What are your goals for 2021?
My goals for 2021 as a young elite runner would be to qualify for a world cup stage (Switzerland, Sweden or Italy). In addition, I would like to be able to participate in the Tiomila and Jukola with SNO!

How is your training going during these Corona-times? 
During the pandemic, I never had a drop in motivation but I took advantage of being able to continue to train well so that I could be ready as soon as I got back from the competitions.

Which leg do you think would suit you at Tiomila?
Good question. I am ready to take any leg but I think I'm attracted to the first one. Otherwise I would say an short/medium relay because I am still "young".  

I look forward to meeting all of you soon I hope!


Beroende på omvärldsläget kanske vi får möjligheten att se Jonas (och Tino) i Södertälje redan i mars. Oavsett, välkommen till SNO, Jonas!
