Chris André Jespersen (born 18 October 1983) is a Norwegian cross-country skier who has competed since 2002.

His best World Cup finishes were second in a 30 km event in Davos in 2013, and second in the 2013–14 Tour de Ski.

Their fourth place finish was subsequently upgraded to a bronze medal following the disqualification of the Russian team.

[2] During the 15 km time trial, Jespersen came to international attention when, in addition to wearing a short-sleeved top, he opted to cut his ski tights off at the thigh and race with bare legs.

[3] Although temperatures at the games were often uncharacteristically mild, the incongruous sight of a winter athlete skiing in shorts and a t-shirt was remarked on by commentators and audiences worldwide.
