Bo Andreas Gustafsson (Born 10 August 1981 in Gothenburg) is a Swedish race walker.[1] He has represented his country at the World Championship in Athletics on four occasions. He qualified for 2 Olympics by making the IAAF standard B in 2008 and IAAF standard A in 2012, but was not selected on the Swedish Olympic Team. His highest accomplishment is a 20th-place finish at the 2009 World Athletics Championships in Berlin, Germany. He was also 12th at the 2010 European Athletics Championships in Barcelona and 21st at the 2011 IAAF World Athletics Championships in Daegu, South Korea.[2]
At the 2012 USATF Pan American race walk trials in Valley Cottage, NY he became the third fastest Swedish race walker in history by walking 3:50:47 in the Men's Open 50 km race which is his Personal Best. In March 2015 the Swedish Sports Confederation announced that they had banned him for two years for testing positive for EPO.
He is a Commercial Pilot by education.[3] His father and coach is Olympic silver medalist Bo Gustafsson.
In 2022, the U.S. Center for SafeSport provisionally suspended Gustafsson for “sexual misconduct.”[4] USA Track & Field told its members that Gustafsson was prohibited “from participating ... in any ... activity, or competition authorized by, organized by or under the auspices of the USOPC, the National Governing Bodies recognized by the USOPC, a Local Affiliated Organization ... or at a facility under the jurisdiction of the same.”[4]
