Eriksen and her three other teammates became Norway's first relay to qualify for the Olympics since 1920 when the Games of the VII Olympiad was hosted in Antwerp, Belgium. In the finals on Sunday, the Norwegians finished fifth-overall with another new national record by narrowly beating their previous time by .01 with a run of 3:26.88 on Sunday.
 
Former Ute and teammate of Eriksen, Dinedye Denis was also on hand in the Bahamas for the races as an alternate for Côte d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast) – who also earned a spot in the Paris Olympics on Sunday in the second round of qualifications.
