Hello, my name is Minna Jarian and I'm a member of the Finnish track and field team. I've been competing in the Olympics for several years now and this year has been particularly special. We have a great group of girls on our team and we're all very supportive of each other.
I grew up in Helsinki where I started training early on under the guidance of my coach. It was tough at times, but I always knew that I wanted to be an Olympic athlete one day. I worked hard and put in the hours needed to achieve my goals, and it really paid off.
I'm so excited for all of us this year! We have a great chance of winning some medals and bringing home the gold. It's been a real thrill being here in Tokyo and being surrounded by so many amazing athletes from around the world.
