Bjørk Herup Olsen heads to the European Cup in Bosnia and Herzegovina

Machine-translated from Faroese and not yet reviewed. Read the original.

On Saturday Bjørk Herup Olsen will take part in a European Cup match for U-19 teams. Bjørk’s good results this summer have led the Danish club Helsingør IF to invite the Faroese girl to compete for their team. Bjørk will therefore be one of the 9 girls in the HIF team who on Friday will first fly to Vienna, then to Sarajevo, and finally travel by bus to Tuzla, the third-largest city in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The competition is in Group B, and the teams they will compete against come from Germany, Slovakia, Estonia and Poland. The home team is called Sloboda Technograd.

Bjørk herself will compete in three events. We do not yet know the order, but the events are the 800 m, the 3,000 m and the 4 x 400 relay. It will be exciting to see whether Bjørk can once again run to her best and add another Faroese record to the many she has set this season.

We wish Bjørk the best of luck!
