NORSEMAN LIVE IS FOR YOU. This is our way to share a rather inaccessible race.

The 2019 athlete BIB numbers have been assigned.

The Norseman Research Team has just published another paper. This time it is a series of case reports regarding SIPE among starters at Norseman Xtreme Triathlon. Don’t know what SIPE is? Read on, and we will take you through what you need to know.

We have just published a study which started back at Norseman 2015. That year, the Hardangerfjord was cold, and in the Safety and Medical team we needed information about how this would affect the triathletes. We couldn’t find much useful info.

The Norseman Research Team will continue it´s research efforts in 2019. This year we have been joined by more great researchers.

The list of 2019 Isklar Norseman athletes is ready. Also introducing the Xtri World championships.

Every year the board of Hardangervidda Triatlon Klubb (the Norseman owner) awards a scholarship to an up and coming Norwegian triathlete with “international potential”.

He sits comfortably on the floor of the ferry at 4:30. Two meters and 100 kilogram of trained muscle tissue, stretched tendons – a friendly looking, beaming athlete ready to race. Not apparent to the eye of his fellow athletes is his biggest strength – his mind.

In our 16th race, 238 of the most daring triathletes representing 35 countries, once again swam the 3.8km, cycled the 180km, ran the 42.2km and ascended more than 5000m in some of Norway’s most exquisite landscapes.

After 226 kilometres of arduous swimming, cycling and running, Isklar Norseman Xtreme Triathlon 2017 has come to an end. Both Lars Christian Vold and Anne Nevin had epic wins.

250 of the world’s bravest triathletes swarm the docks of Eidfjord, Norway at 03:00, fresh off a short night’s rest burdened with anticipation. The beginning of the Isklar Norseman Xtreme Triathlon draws near, a wild adventure across 226km of Norway’s most demanding landscapes.
