I’m a curious and goal-oriented guy. Born in the deep forest of Småland, now living in Stockholm.
I have always been into sports and was playing soccer and ice hockey when I was young. Was never a big talent so had to figure out a new sport :). Found the love for endurance racing and adventure sports some years ago a have been participating in several races since.
Have always been curious to push my mental och physical limits. This seemed like the next big challenge after completing a couple of Ironman’s and Swedeman Xtreme Triathlon.
Looking forward to race through the Swedish landscape, coast to coast. Believe this will be an epic event!

Drizzly rain on the west coast. Snow still on patches of the bike course in Smålands inland and in the Mälardalen region. But despair not! For spring is slowly creeping upon us and it is again time to disconnect from Swift and to get some proper time on the road bike.

New mens course record at Ultraman Florida with Chris McDonald at 21 hours 32. We dont expect anyone to break 24 hours in UltraTri Sweden anytime soon but you never know. Oscar Olssons 28h 35 mins from 2014 still stands as course record. Fastest female is Magdalena Trumstedt 34:15, also from 2014.
