– Race experience

2022, 2023 and 2025 One Water Race participant. 2nd place Endless Mountain AR. Multi time 24 hour and 72 hour Adventure Race Champion. We know we can get through it all, just can we do it in time?

– Why do you want to participate in One Water Race?

Our team was amazing, we loved being together and we want to come back and make it farther. Plus the archipelago is magical and we love being there.

– Have you taken a similar challenge before?

2022,2023,2025 One Water Race.

– What are your strengths?

Very good at orienteering, very good at planning and organizing, great runner and good swimmer.

– What are your weaknesses?

Have had wrist issues after 30 hours every time at One Water (which I figured out after these years!!), do not enjoy cold water.

– What would be your biggest challenges in this race?

Trying to keep pace with the fastest teams, we know as a team we could keep going and going, that is not our issue. The issue is trying to stay within 5–8 hours of the lead team and how to do that.

– Have you been to the Stockholm archipelago and what do you know/think about the terrain?

I love it.

– What are you most looking forward to, if you would participate in One Water Race?

Being back together with our team, with the race crew and the people around the race. Swimming and running is fun too.
