Just an ordinary person doing what he loves. Fought the extreme and won a black T-shirt at Norseman 2016.

Been thinking about a tattoo for 3 years now and the motive has been altered several times. But after my Norseman experience I knew exactly what I wanted. When I look down on it I want to be remembered how f@#kin bad it was. How hypothermia kicked my ass twice. How I thought I was going to die when a bus passed me and the winds hurled me from side to side. The long run when feeling pressure from other athletes and my whole body wanted to cramp. But also how happy I was when I came out of the swim. How happy I really was seeing @johannesjennebo at the pitstops . Hearing the words YOU ARE AMONG THE 160 FIRST. And finally when crossing the blue finish line on top of Mount Gusta. It started as a race but ended with a whole new take on life. #iamnorseman #nxtri2016 #triathlon #triathlete #tattoo #httmalmö #nofilter #dotwork #teamstarkel #life #phoenix #fenix #thankful #extremetriathlon #athlete

This is probably only 3km into the run and it looks like I keep a good pace. Being hunted by the guy in the back and chasing the mountain in front of me. #iamnorseman #tbt #nxtri2016 #extremetriathlon #extreme #running #marathon #teamstarkel #httmalmö #swimbikerun #triathlon #trihood #triathlete

I was part of a project during Norseman to see what happens to the body after extreme stress. It's been 1 month since the race but my body has not recovered yet. My heart skyrockets during small runs and yesterday It reached 193bpm of max 204bpm while taking it quite easy (but hilly). My heart obviously needs more time to heal. #nxtri2016 #stress #triathlon #teamstarkel #httmalmö #htfu #extremetriathlon #swim #bike #run #triathlete #athlete #science

There I am, bib 106 in #nxtri2016 . Just completed a 1200m ascent and is greeted with the cold fog. Little did I know winds and rain was waiting for me. #thetrihood #nofilter #stravaphoto #strava #httmalmö #htfu #triathlon #whereiride #outsideisfree #fog #norway #extreme #extremetriathlon #athlete #triathlete #endurance #glory #solitude

You can see the Norseman movies. You can hear the people tell you their feelings about finishing at the top. But you do not really understand what it's all about until you do it yourself. #nxtri2016 #blacktshirt #trihood #triathlon #triathlete #httmalmö #swimming #biking #running #finisher #swimbikerun #nofilter #extremetriathlon #teamstarkel #true #unique #extreme #zombiehill
