Månsson sprinted past Olympic third-place finisher Beth Potter during the run and secured the major international breakthrough of her career.

I'm just going to take a few days and enjoy it, then continue working for the next competition, she says.

The Swede competed at the Paris Olympics and finished 23rd.

Månsson is now joined by Lisa Nordén, who won the same event in 2012. Nordén is now sports director at the Swedish Triathlon Association and is looking forward to the future.

This is great for our sport and shows there is a resurgence at the Swedish level, she tells Expressen.

The next World Cup competition is in Alghero, Italy, on May 30.
