from Endurance Unlimited · host TrainingPeaks
The National Triathlon Team of Norway has a fascinating story. Head Coach Arild Tveiten started with just a small handful of athletes interested in the sport. With the right investment of time (8 years!), dedication and a heavy focus on sport science (forget 80/20 training, they are using 90/10!), athlete Kristian Blummenfelt was able to bring home his first gold in triathlon from Tokyo. Discover what it takes for a small country to build a successful team from the ground up, despite limited funding and manpower.
