Mona Holm

Mona Christine Holm, formerly married Solberg (born 5 August 1983) is a Norwegian hammer thrower.

Lacking a training field, she used to stand on a remote road and throw the hammer into the adjacent woodlands.

She attended upper secondary school in Namsos, but still without a group of throwers to train with, so she continued playing handball throughout her teenages.

[8] After sitting out the 2013 Norwegian championships due to childbirth, Mona Holm Solberg tried to win her tenth hammer title in 2014, but succumbed to Trude Raad.

[7] Another improvement to 64.20 metres, set in April 2006 while conducting pre-season training in Poros, was not acknowledged as the stadium was "not certified".

Instead, she went via 63.39 metres at another European Cup meet—the 2006 European Cup Second League Group A in Banská Bystrica—before even surpassing her unofficial record with back-to-back throws of 64.50 metres at the Öresundsspelen in Helsingborg and 64.89 at the Bottnaryd Throwing Meeting in Bottnaryd, both in Sweden.

This too would stand for some time, until August 2011 when Holm reached her final best throw of 70.43 at the Norwegian championships in Byrkjelo.
