Further positive news to be lifting came a few weeks ago. After six or seven months of waiting, she got when her long-awaited "green card" in the United States.
- It's really nice. Now I can even take a job on the side here if I would like it, leave the country again , and take the license, even here in the US, says Erika Kinsey, who in winter moved with her husband and coach Daniel Kinsey Cleveland, Ohio.
For summer bet so she turns back to Sweden and Nälden again. Exactly when is a little unclear yet.
- I had intended to do two races before I go home, but we'll see how it goes. For the Diamond League in Eugene in late May, I stand on the waiting list, so I do not expect to jump there, says Erika Kinsey.
The first race will now perhaps on the way home instead. Tourism is scheduled to Oslo in early June with the hope that the jump in the Bislett games where 9 June.
Bauhaus Awards in Stockholm on June 16, also part of the Diamond League, is completed . But then the schedule depends on how it goes.
Erika Kinsey hope in place both at the European Championships in Amsterdam and Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro in the summer.
Competition in Sweden in the women is fierce with the World Cup-fifth Sofie Skoog and comeback spirit Emma Green and Ebba Jungmark as tough opponents in the fight for tickets to the major objectives - the European Championships in Amsterdam, Netherlands, in July and the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil , in August.
- It is difficult to have any planning. EM, I would really love to do, but Sweden has only three points and qualification for 1.90, we can be more capable. For OS've also SOK their demands. It depends on the shape, but can of course be that it must not be at the European Championships, but comes to the Olympics, or vice versa, says Erika Kinsey.

Between races, the 28-year-old stopover at home with mom and dad, Asa and Thomas Wiklund, in Nälden. A peaceful and comfortable base for Erika Kinsey, who has a very different security in their efforts now then even SOK, the Swedish Olympic Committee, took her in their support programs .
- Really nice! I too have had great support from the club, Trångsviken IF, and together do it now that I can focus entirely on the high jump. Go and get a massage, have a mental coach, and attend a camp, which is now four weeks in Florida, I had not been able to otherwise, Erika says Kinsey.
Unlike the start of last season so the focus is now entirely on the high jump, in terms of competition. There will be no long jump or triple jump.
- There is not time. But in practice I run sometimes a bit length, where I jump with the other foot. It is good for both the body and head with something else, says Erika Kinsey, the former hockey player in the winter also broken off some skates and more.
But now the focus is on high altitudes to reach anywhere until Rio.
- It was nice to take the Olympic qualifiers border again at the World Cup, so I've taken it this year and shown that I is stable at that level. But hope to have it even in one of the competition and be happy at the beginning, says Erika Kinsey, who is set to complete:
- It'll be a fun summer!
Kinsey pursues Olympic dreams at World competition By MARQUIS JONES Reporter (WARRENSBURG, Mo., digitalBURG) — Central Missouri track and field athletes have had a memorable 2015. With the Jennies winning both indoor and outdoor championships earlier this year, former Jennie track and field athlete Erika Kinsey had the opportunity of a lifetime to compete in Beijing for the IAAF World Championships of track and field. After capturing both the indoor and outdoor NCAA National Championships in the high jump in 2015 and helping the Jennies to their first ever track and field championships, Kinsey competed for Sweden, her native country, for a chance to make Worlds. “I was so tired from the season here (at UCM),” Kinsey said “So I just wanted to go home, rest and get ready for next season. But then I got the chance to compete for the Swedish team and was really exciting to do that and it went unbelievably (well).” Unbelievable is right. In June, she jumped a personalbest 1.97m (6’ 5.5”) at the European Athletics Team Championships. That mark helped Kinsey qualify for the World Championships. “After that jump, I couldn’t believe it because it was unreal,” Kinsey said. “It was like a whole new world, getting invites to Diamond League and I was thinking if I should come back to school. That was my plan before I left for the summer, but I didn’t want to miss the opportunity to do Diamond League.” Choosing track first, Kinsey traveled the world, going to places like Sweden, Germany, Brazil, Japan and China. Even though Kinsey had been inseason for nine months so far, she stayed positive and remembered her dream to one day compete in the Olympics. Before Worlds, Kinsey wanted to be home more than ever to just sit and relax with friends and family who she had not seen in over year. “I was really happy to see family and friends,” Kinsey said. “But at the same time when you like Warrensburg and everything here, I was just stressed and needed to go back to Sweden. When I was home, I missed the team and training with everyone back in Warrensburg.” Kinsey wasn’t the only UCM track athlete competing this summer. Senior thrower Heavin Warner and multi event athlete Kurtis Brondyke, assistant coach, both competed in the USA Outdoor Championships in Eugene, Oregon. “It’s amazing that we have such world class athletes competing on the same team,” Warner said. “It’s inspiring and great to see that even though this is a small town,” Kinsey said. “It has great people and great athletes. It’s great to see people to strive for their dreams and actually get there.” Finishing her training in Japan, Kinsey entered the World Championships ranked in the top 10. The IAAF World Championship was hosted in Beijing, China Aug. 2230. Kinsey competed in the women’s high jump qualification Aug. 27 to earn a spot for the finals. Competing for her native country, Sweden, Kinsey cleared her best mark of 1.89m (62.25) on her first attempt, but she did not qualify for the final round after missing a mark of 1.92m (6.3). If Kinsey cleared that mark, she would have tied for first in her heat and qualified for finals. “I didn’t do as good as I hoped for and wanted, but it’s been a nine month season,” Kinsey said. “Itried to train but my body didn’t answer, I tried to rest, but my body didn’t answer, so I was hoping for the best. Even though I didn’t do as good, I’m really happy with the whole season. In the U.S., with the two national champions, and to go back to Sweden and finally compete for them and take my old PR, it was fun.” Kinsey finished No. 13 in the world rankings. Eager to get back home, Kinsey wants to relax and spend some time with her husband, UCM track and field graduate assistant coach, Daniel Kinsey. She also looks forward to having fun on weekends and skating, which she loves. Head coach Kip Janvrin said he is proud of athletes competing beyond NCAA competitions. “Anytime an athlete competes beyond the NCAA championships, that’s a great sign because that means they’re a phenomenal athlete,” Janvrin said. “Erika is there, she competed in the world championships, and the things she accomplished this year were way above and beyond Division II.” Perusing her dream of competing for her Sweden in the 2016 Olympic games in Rio, Brazil, Kinsey has already qualified in the high jump. “I already qualified for the standards in the indoor worlds and Olympics, that has made me happy and not stressed,” Kinsey said. Janvrin said it is great to see Kinsey qualify. “She has the Olympic A standard,” said Janvirn. “If, in her case, she is jumping well and improving her fitness, she will compete for Sweden in the Olympics games, which is awesome.” Not forgetting the start of her season back in Warrensburg, Kinsey returned on Sept. 20 and was welcomed by old and new teammates as she watched both the Mules and Jennies track teams take home the annual athletics karaoke trophies. “It feels good to be back here,” Kinsey said. “Right now I’m not training. In a few weeks I will be back and joining the team for workouts to start my training. Being around the team will be great because I need someone to train with.”

Kinsey misses out on world finals
August 28, 2015
From Staff Reports , The Review
BEIJING - Sweden's Erika Kinsey finished in the middle of the pack in the women's high jump at the IAAF world championships on Thursday morning.
Thirteen jumpers cleared 6-feet-3 1/2 to advance to Saturday's finals.
Kinsey, who is married to Beaver Local High School graduate Dan Kinsey, was among eight jumpers to get over 6-feet-2 1/2. She made her first three jumps with one miss before coming up short on her three attempts at 6-feet-3 1/2.
The 27-year-old Kinsey won NCAA Division II titles in the high jump at the national indoor and outdoor meets this year representing the University of Central Missouri, where Dan Kinsey is an assistant coach.
She had a personal-best 6-feet-5 1/2 in placing fourth at the sixth European Team Championships in June.
Olympic champion Anna Chicherova of Russia and former world champion Blanka Vlasic of Croatia were among the favorites to advance to Saturday's high jump finals.
The 33-year-old Chicherova, who took gold at the 2012 London Olympics and bronze at the 2008 Beijing Games, has a world-leading mark of 6-feet-8 this year.
Vlasic, who won silver at the 2008 Olympics, looked to be returning to her earlier form with a leap of 6-feet-5 1/2 1.97 this year before injuries curtailed her preparations coming into the worlds.
Also moving through to the final was 36-year-old Ruth Beitia, who is competing in her seventh world championships. Beitia had planned to retire at the end of 2012, but changed her mind and won a bronze medal at the 2013 worlds in Moscow.
The Spaniard has cleared 6-feet-6 3/4 this year.
Another veteran, 41-year-old Venelina Veneva-Mateeva of Bulgaria, failed to make the final in her ninth world championships. Chaunte Lowe, the only American in the field, also did not advance after failing to clear her opening height of 5-feet-11.

Comeback-Kinsey third in the World
I do not believe it is a coincidence that there are two girls who grew up with the biggest medal hopes for the World Championships in Beijing, now that Michel Tornéus have problems with a back and only had time to do a race outdoors.
Okay, maybe I should expect Aregawi and She promises herself That she will take gold if she can be completely healthy.
But there is not much That points to it and in the present form May Aregawi tough to even get a medal.
No, it is Erika Kinsey is the biggest medal hope after his 1.97 in Law Championship in Russia.
She has the help of the standard dropped in a branch where Blanka Vlasic and Anna Tjitjerova are no obvious seven-foot jumper anymore.
Kinsey is by far the best English in seasonal best place in the world with his third place right now.
A Girl That absolutely no one had anticipated When The season started.
I did not even know who she was Until I Discovered That it was "old" great talent Erika Wiklund married, changed the name and made a sensational comeback as 27-year-old.
But it May just be typical When The high jump is English athletics actual paired event in the World Cup context.
Of a total of 14 English World Championship medals since its inception in 1983, six have come in height.
Second place is the heptathlon thanks to Carolina Klüfts three World Championship gold medals.
At stake is the "only" Has Become a bronze, but I think it May be Time for the Next.
