Niskanen Reveals Cancer Diagnosis

Finnish cross-country skier Iivo Niskanen has disclosed that he missed the national team's summer training camps due to an acral melanoma diagnosis. The condition required surgical removal of a mole on his foot, which needed time to heal and forced adjustments to his training routine.

Niskanen, who won't attend the team's planned media day on Monday, emphasized that his health situation is now under control and he has been focusing on adapting his training. He expressed gratitude for the support received from head coach Joakim Abrahamsson throughout the summer. milkshakeslot.com
