Reijo Byman

Reijo Byman (born 12 October 1955 in Sipoo) was a Finnish hurdler.

He reached the semi-final of the 1979 European Indoor Championships,[1] the heats of the 1982 European Championships[2] and finished eighth at the 1984 European Indoor Championships.[3]

Byman became Finnish indoor champion in 1978 and 1984, but never outdoor champion owing to the dominance of Arto Bryggare in the event.[4] Instead he won outdoor national championship silver medals in 1977, 1979, 1980, 1981, 1982 and 1983.

After retirement Byman has made a career as an educationalist at the University of Helsinki.[5]
