– Race experience
Did great in 2025 until lung issues. Overall I felt like I was moving well and having no problems with swimming and running. No issues with eating food or team. I know we can go farther into the race.
– Why do you want to participate in One Water Race?
Frustration from not going as long as we could have done last year. Had a great time, but things that we can work on as a team and I want to be better.
– Have you taken a similar challenge before?
2025 One Water Race.
– What are your strengths?
Great teammate, proven that I am resistant to cold, good swimmer. I don’t get too grumpy.
– What are your weaknesses?
I need to work on my asthma treatment for my lungs. I am learning to navigate, I worked on that last year. Speed over the first couple of hours.
– What would be your biggest challenges in this race?
Getting and going through the 2nd night. We did not quite make it. Also going farther and what that time would feel like.
– Have you been to the Stockholm archipelago and what do you know/think about the terrain?
Yes and I love it. So beautiful and the terrain is amazing.
– What are you most looking forward to, if you would participate in One Water Race?
Being back together with my team and friends. Swimming under the stars.
