– Why do you want to participate in One Water Race?
OWR has a unique aura about it. I would love to return to OWR yet again to push our limits and be at one with Nature in the Archipelago.
– Have you taken a similar challenge before?
OWR 2022, OWR 2023, OWR 2024.
– What are your strengths?
Eating with my hands, swimming and the ability to remain calm and positive in testing times.
– What are your weaknesses?
Fika, Running and getting into the swimrun suit on my own.
– What would be your biggest challenges in this race?
Our biggest challenge remains the same every year. To reach Landsort Lighthouse, although we have done it before, our focus must remain first and foremost, reaching Landsort!
– Have you been to the Stockholm archipelago and what do you know/think about the terrain?
The Stockholm archipelago is such a special destination and provides an amazing playground to host OWR. I can’t wait to get back into the forest, eat Blueberries and island hop our way down the coast.
– What are you most looking forward to, if you would participate in One Water Race?
Every year we have participated in OWR our team has not seen a Moose on the course. Personally, I really want to see a Moose this year! A burger and Landsort Larger at the finish line is pretty appealing too! I’d really like to concur Danziger Gatt again, as much as it is a huge mental obstacle during the race, the feeling of reaching the other side is just so special.
