Eliasson was third in the sprint at the Nordic Championships in 2005. At the World Championships in the same year in Aichi , Japan , however, she failed in qualifying. But just a year later she reached fourth place and missed the bronze medal by just five seconds. In 2007 in Ukraine she took third place in the sprint. However, she was not able to confirm these placements again until 2010 at the European Championships when she won bronze in the middle distance and together with Karolina Arewång-Höjsgaard and Helena Janssonwon the gold medal in the relay. She had previously set back an injury to the central nervous system in 2008. In 2011 she finished third in the sprint as in 2007 - behind her compatriots Linnea Gustafsson and Helena Jansson.
