Where does, where does your running ability come from?

Yeah, no, CrossFitters, they don't like to run.

Uh, [laughs] so my ability, yeah, um, I, I, I did handball, uh, when I was a child, uh, and there I actually got shin splints.

Um, but I found sort of running, because that was something that I could do, because it wasn't this much, you know, back and forth, uh, at the course.

Uh, so I started doing just short runs, uh, basically, just because I thought it was fun.

Um, and then this ended up with, uh, uh, trying some different races, uh, in running.

Uh, I did one marathon quite early, uh, and then I did one other marathon in 2024, and I've done some half marathons, uh, basically.

Like, how was, how was that for you?

H- how did you find out about HYROX? How did you go from CrossFit to HYROX and think, "Oh"?

Yeah, it, so it started in 2024.

I was about to do the, um, the HYROX in December in Stockholm.

Uh, so me and my sister were supposed to do that, but then I got injured, so I couldn't, and I was like, "Okay, yeah," since it's, like, one year until the next one, I was like, "Okay, no, let's focus on, on the CrossFit." And then this September I did the VO2 max and, um, threshold tests, and the guy who did those tests on me, he was like, "Uh, do you want to be the best in the world in a sport?" And I was like, "What do you mean?" And he was like, "You can be the best in the world in HYROX if you change to HYROX." And I was like, "Uh, no, I'm a CrossFitter, you know? You can't just, uh, switch like that." And then he sort of, he convinced me and be like, "Yeah, but I can train you for this," and, and so on.

Uh, so I was like, "Okay, but let's try." So we did, um, did the December, uh, HYROX in Stockholm, and it went quite well, and so after that I was like, "Okay, let's try this." So it was actually him, uh, convincing me to, to do it, and now he's then my coach and, um, yeah, we're very good friends and, and so on.

Do you mind talking to us about that?

Yeah.

I mean, I've done a couple of, um, half-marathons as well, and I would...

So who showed you, who introduced you to CrossFit last year? Or, or, uh, Hyrox last year?

Uh, that was actually...

Well, he's my coach now.

Uh, but I did the threshold and the two max tests, uh, and the, the person that did those tests is called Kenny, and he's now my coach.

Uh, and he was like, "Damn, you should, uh, change sports because you, you can be the best in the world in Hyrox." And I was like, "No.

No, I, I'm doing CrossFit.

I will never change to Hyrox.
