Description
Anders Kjaerevik is professional trail runner from Norway sponsored by Salomon.
He’s mostly famous for two things: being an “experimental mountain runner”, as he likes to call himself, and being extremely good on the downhills.
Right now he’s competing at the Golden Trail Series final in Madeira (5 stages, a total of 109km and +7300m), where - of course - he’s the leader of the special downhill segment classification!
In this episode, we dive into his love for the sport and for training, how he likes to experiment different training techniques (this summer he was running a super high mileage with multiple weeks in a row over 300km and +10000m of elevation!), how trained for this season and what his strategy is going to be in Madeira.
But I think the most interesting part is when he gives his tips and advice on how to become a better downhill runner. Visualisation, strength for the quads and handling the risk on technical terrain: learn from one of the best in the world!
