Unfortunately this is the closest I am going to get racing the course in IM St George 70,3. My foot that got sore the week between the challenge Fuerteventura and St Anthonys’s is still not great. After a couple of treatments at the hospital here in St George we took the decission today that I [...]

It wasn’t one of my finess moments out there. The St. Anthony’s triathlon proved to be a challenge tougher than expected. First out was the wind that had picked up over night. From the calm waters we have seen all week – the ocean was choppy and difficult to manage. I found that my stroke [...]

  It hasn’t been two weeks since the Challenge race at Fuerteventura. Since then I have been spending time at the massage table and on airplanes. Inbetween various versions of recovery and “finding my legs” kind of sessions. St Petersburg impressed me. Beautiful sunrises, which I made more most of nursing a light jetlag. A [...]

It’s been an interesting winter with more sport awards than training camps. A coach change. A new apartment. A fresh home base in Stockholm. After a winter of indoor bike sessions, treadmills and long swim sets it is now time to wake up the body. Squeeze myself into the suit, add some pace – and [...]

There are a lot of different types of races nowadays and I thought I’d try to straighten things out a bit. This sunday I’ll participate in the Challenge Fuerteventura, a half Iron Man distance with start and finish at my training venue Playitas. The Challenge Series feature both half ironman(1,9km-90km-21km)  and full ironman distance racing (3,8k-180km-42km). [...]

After a longer consistent block of training back in Stockholm I have now packed my bags and headed south. I’m back at Playitas Resort, my escape from the chilly winds and snow that still covers the streets of Stockholm. It’s a national training camp, a race prep and a season debut for me. I’m attempting to tune [...]

There was truly some stunning moments from the 2012 season. Watching this video gives me goosbumps, and an urge to go back out for another session. The ITU World Triahlon Series consists of 7 races followed by a Grand Finale. You count your 5 best races going into the Grand Finale. The Grand Finale is [...]

Think most people noticed there are a slight change of focus for me this year. Having based my seasons solely around the ITU races before, the plan for 2013 is somewhat different. I’m not stepping away from ITU and short course. I’m just giving myself a little breather – and a new challenge. Life would [...]

Yesterday I had the honor of attending a dinner at the Stockholm Palace. The very same palace I have run loops around while racing the Stockholm Triathlon. This time I was invited inside to take part of the “Sverigemiddag“. A celebrational event in the honor of his majesties 40 years on the throne. I was [...]

I went to the Swedish Sport Award Gala nominated in no less than three categories. Achievement of the year Swedish female athlete of the year and the very prestigious the Jerringpriset (peoples choice award) I was also there to collect the physical prize of “Bragdguldet“. An award I won in december late last year. It was [...]
