Although she did not have many international successes as a senior, she won 15 Norwegian Championships, consisting of 8 Norwegian Allround Championships titles, 4 Norwegian Sprint Championships titles, and 3 Norwegian Single Distance Championships titles. In 2002, aged 42, she won silver on the 5,000 m at the Norwegian Single Distance Championships and she participated in the 2006 Norwegian Single Distance Championships as well, 45 years old, finishing 12th on the 1,500 m and 7th on the 3,000 m.
