Sanni Utriainen height - How tall is Sanni Utriainen?

Utriainen broke 60 metres for the first time in June 2015 in Lappeenranta, throwing 60.08 m. At the 2015 national championships in early August she only managed 57.59 m and placed second behind Oona Sormunen, but the following week she threw 63.03 m in Kuortane, improving her personal best by almost three metres and exceeding the qualifying standard for the World Championships in Beijing.

Utriainen is coached by her father Esa. Former javelin thrower Tero Järvenpää became her secondary coach in 2015.

In the following years Utriainen's results stagnated; although she improved her personal best in each of 2011, 2012 and 2013, the improvements were only minor, and she didn't reach the international elite. Her best throw in 2012, 59.31 m, was a Finnish under-23 record and exceeded the B standard for the Olympics in London; she was selected for the Olympics, but went out in the qualifying round, not registering a valid mark on any of her three attempts. In 2013, she improved her national under-23 record by four centimetres to 59.35 m. She missed the 2014 season almost entirely due to an elbow injury.

At the 2010 World Junior Championships in Moncton Utriainen won gold, throwing a personal best 56.69 m on her final attempt to overtake Latvia's Līna Mūze by five centimetres. Later that summer she won gold at the Finnish championships in Kajaani, throwing 56.29 m for her first (and, as of 2015, only) national senior title; she also won at the Finland-Sweden Athletics International, setting a new personal best of 57.26 m.
