Milla Jauho

Milla Jauho

Milla Jauho, sometimes shown as Milla Saari, (born July 10, 1975) is a former Finnish cross country skier who competed from 1994 to 2007. She was best known for her doping role in the 2001 FIS Nordic World Ski Championships doping scandal that would affect five other Finnish skiers for taking hydroxyethyl starch (HES), a blood plasma expander. Jauho was part of the 4 x 5 km team that finished second, but would be disqualified for her blood doping and would receive a two year suspension from the FIS as a result. She also finished 6th in the 15 km event at those same championships.

Jauho competed at the 1998 Winter Olympics in Nagano where she finished 31st in the 15 km event and 50th in the 30 km event. She earned all four of her individual career victories up to 10 km after she served her two year doping suspension from 2003 to 2005.

Jauho retired after the 2006-07 World Cup season. [FIS Newsflash 122. April 11, 2007.]
