Check out www.sleepmonsters.com @sleepmonstersdotcom for a great article on latest nr 1 worldseries-ranking, stories from WC Reunion and our 15+ year team history. - - - #arworldseries #icebug #adventureracing #haglofs #silvaglobal #bybike_umea #hestragloves #iamspecialized #barocook #sziols #umarasports #nordenmarkadventure #xinix Thanks to our 2nd place finishes on Adventure Racing World Championship (ARWC) 2017 and 2018 and podium finishes on the World Series races, we are currently ranked as nr 1 in the world. Now we just need to find a strong title sponsor so that we can try to defend the title next year...;) - - - - @silvaglobal #arworldseries #icebug #adventureracing #haglofs #silvaglobal #bybike_umea #hestragloves #iamspecialized #barocook #sziols #umarasports #nordenmarkadventure #xinix On my way back home after a weekend in Scotland, racing #theomm together with @jhasselmark. Two sunny days, with a rainy and stormy night camping in between. As always a great event with challenging courses, good logistics and many happy faces. Though the hills in Largs, coastal Scotland are not as big as in the Highlands, the terrain was really tough on the legs as it is wet, soft and either covered by heather or tussocks! We made a solid effort with accurate nav and great teamspirit, but did not move fast enough to finish on the podium this time, finishing 4th in elite cat with a total time of 13h45 min. Thanks @Jhasselmark for joining me, thanks @mangea for once again organising this trip, and thanks @the_omm for a great race! /Björn @silvaglobal @ironmantimyoung #arworldseries #icebug #adventureracing #haglofs #silvaglobal #bybike_umea #hestragloves #iamspecialized #barocook #sziols #umarasports #nordenmarkadventure #xinix Had planned to go rollerskiing tonight, once again somehow ended up in my ski . Fingers crossed for more dicipline next time... /Björn #arworldseries #icebug #adventureracing #haglofs #silvaglobal #bybike_umea #hestragloves #iamspecialized #barocook #sziols #umarasports #nordenmarkadventure #xinix @nordickayaks Jossa and Björn had a great weekend in riksgränsen/Björkliden racing Björkliden Arctic Mountain Maraton (BAMM). A beutiful and challenging racecource that offered us everything from green wet birchforests with cloudberries to big hills with some pretty steep slopes. It coveree a total of about 86 km and 5200 m vertical in two days with the compulsary midcamp up in the mountain. With a total time of 13h11 minutes, after a pretty intense sprintfinish, Jossa and Björn took the overall victory in BAMM70, just ahead of Kolmården Adventure. As always a great community before, during and after the race, meeting old friends and finding new. Thanks @bjorkliden_fjallby and @perjonssonfreeski for a great weekend! @swedishlapland @bjorkliden_fjallby #bamm2019 #arworldseries #icebug #adventureracing #haglofs #silvaglobal #bybike_umea #hestragloves #iamspecialized #barocook #sziols #umarasports #nordenmarkadventure #xinix Last minute build up for BAMM starting tomorrow. 70 km of mountain orienteering over two days, with a night camping in between. Jossa and Björn happy to be back again after missing the race last years. www.bamm.nu - - - #arworldseries #icebug #adventureracing #haglofs #silvaglobal #bybike_umea #hestragloves #iamspecialized #barocook #sziols #umarasports #nordenmarkadventure #xinix When family is asleep. - - - #arworldseries #icebug #adventureracing #haglofs #silvaglobal #bybike_umea #hestragloves #iamspecialized #barocook #sziols #umarasports #nordenmarkadventure #xinix Back to basic! 8×5 min. Low speed, high knees and soaked shoes... - - - #arworldseries #icebug #adventureracing #haglofs #silvaglobal #bybike_umea #hestragloves #iamspecialized #barocook #sziols #umarasports #nordenmarkadventure #xinix 2nd place finish at Raid Gallaecia, Spain after a challenging race with up's and downs... We got an early lead and after 24 hours of biking, trekking and kayaking we had a 2 hour gap to the next team. We got a nice 2 hour sleep in our foilbags the 2nd night and felt that things were going our way. The next 24 hours was way less successful with a broken bike pedal (forcing us back to TA5 and change to spare pedals from bikebok with a 1h+ timeloss), to many nav errors and Josefina suffering from a swollen stomach. Heading into the third and last night of the race we were an hour behind Danish team Yeti. They were still sleeping in transition and we decided to take the chance to get away first, without sleeping. A big risk strategy that has worked before... This race it worked out for about half of the tricky bike section until we got way to tired to make it through. Team Yeti caught us sleeping on our bikes and continued on, while we had to nap to make it to last transition and the final seakayak. Congrats to team Yeti for a well performed race! Thanks to raid Gallaecia-crew for a very well organised race with heaps of navigational and physical challenges.
