Lisa Risby

Lisa Risby, born on 6 July 1993, is a Swedish orienteering competitor who runs for the club OK Kåre. She represented Sweden at the 2021 World Orienteering Championships in the Czech Republic, where she placed sixth in the middle distance, the shorter forest format that rewards precise navigation. At the same championships she won a gold medal in the women's relay with the Swedish team, running together with Sara Hagström and Tove Alexandersson. The relay is the team event of the sport, in which each member of a national trio covers one leg of a forest course and the combined result decides the medals, so her gold is a shared title won within one of the strongest orienteering nations.
