21 – 22. juli skal jeg gjøre et nytt og seriøst forsøk på verdensrekord i distanse på 24-timers sykling. Den nåværende rekorden er på hele 915,39 satt av Ralph Diseviscourt i Luxenburg 11. juli i fjor. Min distanse ble 889 km frem og tilbake på et 10,5 km strekning langs Bispeveien. Selve distansen var over … Fortsett å lese Verdensrekordforsøk på 24-timerssykling
Min ultraløp debut
På høsten i fjor deltok jeg på Backyard Ultra Sandefjord der vi løp 6,7km x 12 med start hver hele time. Det var på en måte et ultraløp, men i praksis så var det 12 drøye intervaller. Ganske harde intervaller. Nå, i kveld kl 23:59, går starten på 50 Miles eller 83km av løpet Soria … Fortsett å lese Min ultraløp debut
Sub7 hour Ironman – is it possible?
When I heard about the Pho3nix Sub7/8 hour project, my initial thought was; Ironman under 7 hours? Thats not possible. Not today at least with the equipment and rules we have. It would take a world-class open water swim, a bike leg with unheard average watts and the fastest marathon in any full distance triathlon … Fortsett å lese Sub7 hour Ironman – is it possible?
I ate 10000 kcal in one day
Honestly, I was not on solid ground when going for a nutrition strategy for my 24-hour ride this summer. My options were either my normal Ironman-distance race nutrition which is mainly gels or my normal training nutrition which is mainly bread with peanut butter, honey and banana. Or the third option which is something in … Fortsett å lese I ate 10000 kcal in one day

Going for the Norwegian 24 hour record
This seasons lack of racing has made cyclists restless and creative. In Norway we had a «distance-war» with the current record holder Jonas Orset didn’t stop until he 1011 kilometre.

Project 2:32
I honestly don’t get depressed with the lack of races. It’s an excellent opportunity to do things I have wished to do, but could not find space in a packed race season. One of them is running a marathon. You know, the version without following some swimming and bike riding. First time I ran a … Fortsett å lese Project 2:32
Nail the basics
“Devil is in the details”. A slightly odd phrase which implies that being nitty-gritty with the details is where extraordinary results are made. Triathletes, with their often A-type personalities, love to get deep into the details. In triathlon, however, it’s all wrong. The extraordinary results are made when doing the ordinary and basic stuff … Fortsett å lese Nail the basics
