What made you go all in on your sport? Being able to discover new locations, cultures and friendships from a young age. I didn’t really fit in in my environment I grew up. But when people from all over the place unites for skiing, we’re all different. So, then I felt comfortable with being who I was.
What is your greatest moment as an athlete? Winning first national race at the age of 11. It was my first long term goal in my career. Winning that is till this day, maybe the sweetest taste of success I’ve felt. You won a golden helmet, so that was pretty cool too for an 11 year old. My first ever World Cup win is an honorable mention too.

What is your greatest moment as an athlete?
It’s maybe more expected for me to mention my 4 gold medals in the World Championship in 2021, which were to me incredible and almost hard to believe. But one thing comes after another, and I want to go back to where my success originated, and how I managed to take the step into World Cup and the Norwegian Elite team.

After a disappointing start to the 2019/2020 season, I started a process to unleash the shooting potential I knew was inside of me. I started doing meditation regularly, and after a while my shooting performance improved. When I got the chance to race in World Cup at the end of 2020, I grabbed this chance with both hands and put up my best performance yet. I managed to shoot 59 of 60 out of the four competitions I got to race and finished within top 15 every time. Based on these results I was later picked for the Norwegian Elite team, and the rest, as they say, is history…

What made you go all in on your sport? I’m maybe not the most versatile athlete, you know, the one person that nails everything in gym class. When I found a sport I managed, and that gave me confidence, my inner competitiveness told me to give it a go and do everything in my power to reach the top.
What is your greatest moment as an athlete? I think that what I will remember when I retire (one day…!), is how grateful I am to be surrounded by my team, aka my second family, on this journey. That we experience all the ups and downs and life itself together and are having fun on the way.

What made you go all in on your sport? Something about the team dynamics in curling which is quite unique made me go all out. Trying to reach a goal with people you really enjoy spending time with is very special and is something that really have gravitated me to curling.
What is your greatest moment as an athlete? Reaching the final in our first Grand Slam back in 2017 was quite awesome. Played some really good events at that time, and it was a blast to be a part of. Other than that, it was pretty sweet qualifying for the Olympics seeing how close we were last season. When I look back at my career the moments I will remember most are the times that we barely didn’t make it, either a play-offs or a stone we didn’t make. These are the moments that really test you as an individual and a team, and it takes skill. I will cherish these types of lessons for the rest of my life.

What made you go all in on your sport? Started curling in Oppdal around 2002 after Pål Trulsen and team won the Olympics. I recall my friends all started to play and we had a really good environment with lots of kids playing.

What is your greatest moment as an athlete? After a terrible end to the World Curling Championships in 2021 we ended up one spot short of claiming a place in the Olympics.

What is your greatest moment as an athlete? It’s hard to choose only one – Getting the bronze in PyeongChang 2018 is obviously a great moment, but since we lost the bronze medal game, I would say my greatest moment was winning the World Cup final in 2019.

What made you go all in on your sport? Invited to a birthday party for fun by some friends. Got hooked and was allowed to come and go as I wished for the rest of the season 2006 in my local club. I skipped school almost every day to be better from day one. My mother was also upset because I was supposed to go practice alpine skiing instead of being in the curling-rink.
What is your greatest moment as an athlete? There is so many. The first time I won something of importance was in the University games in Granada 2015. Winning gold there was very special, but obviously there have been greater achievements in the more recent time. It was crazy to go all the way to the Grand Slam Final in our first try with the men’s team in 2017 also. In mixed doubles the silver medal in 2021 world championship tasted very good.

What made you go all in on your sport? My family was really into speedskating. My grandpa has been researching speed skating technique the last 40 years and my father and uncle did speed skating for a long time. Then it was easy for me to go all in on my sport since so many in my family supported me and was really intrested in the sport. I had talent for it when I was young and when I got older it was fun to skate faster and faster though I´ve had a lot of injuries the last couple of years.
What is your greatest moment as an athlete? I have had many great moments from speed skating. The one I remember the most is maybe when we were skating the European Championship in a fully crowded Thialf, Heerenveen, and got 2^nd place in the Team Sprint. That was fun!
