Merits

  • 2025 OWR – DNF 40h
  • 2024 OWR – DNF 38h

– Race experience

I have done a lot of very long swimrun adventures and ultra trail races.

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

I want to prove we have what it takes to make it all the way while still putting on a show.

– Have you taken a similar challenge before?

Yes, OWR 2024 and 2025.

– What are your strengths?

I’m an experienced navigator and I’m great at creating structure in chaos. I have also got to learn my team members really well which I think is key in order to keep one step ahead of their needs.

– What are your weaknesses?

I don’t like to fail and it took a while before I decided to be part of the team for OWR 2026. However, now we are really committed to use our experience and put in the hard work to make it all the way!

– What would be your biggest challenges in this race?

Maintaining my calm when I see my team straying from the plan during the orienteering. It is tough just watching from the boat and not being able to assist.

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

I have done many ÖtillÖ World Championships and have built experience from OWR 2024 and 2025.

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

Making it all the way to Landsort and putting some pressure on the other teams.
