🔥 UTMB final - p26 of women, p168 of all (~2,400 starters), p2 W45-49 🔥
174km, 10,000m of elevation, time 26:44

My first 100-miler and what an incredible experience🥳 running from 🇫🇷 to 🇮🇹 to🇨🇭and back to 🇫🇷. The first 30km of the course were packed with people in a real Tour de France way💥. People were cheering (screaming 📢) “Ingrid” in my face, high-fives along the route, music 🎶 and people dancing. After Contamines, we went running into the night with luckily the weather being better than first forecasted (still a bit cold), so had the full moon throughout the night 🌕. From Courmayeur on, my favorite part started and sunrise coming up over the Mont Blanc Massive 🏞️, but the elevation started to take its toll. The climb up from Trient (~1,000m elevation and average ascend of 16%) nearly took me out 🥵. I was so dizzy and a DNF was close. My plan throughout the race was to start controlled and trust that I would pick places along the way. I was ranked nb71 and when approaching La Flegere I was nb30. First I took another three women in the downhill section and then managed to take out some extra energy for a sprint passing one last in the centre of Chamonix. 🏃🏻‍♀️What an adrenaline kick finishing 174km with a sprint 🎉. 

I got nauseous from the gels from very early 🤢 (even though I am used to them), so had to rely mostly on fluids. I think that killed a bit the energy uphills, but luckily the downhill running was quite ok. 👌 

Thanks to pappa @kallevignils for crewing at Contamines and for @nils_dg for the next three ones. I know it is extremely stressful knowing that I rely on you… 🤗, but you are doing a great job! Thanks to the rest of the crew 🇳🇴😍for showing up through the race. It would have been an even longer day (and night) without you ❤️. Super training program from coach @didrikhermansen 📈. I also appreciate all encouraging words ahead of the race and congratulations afterwards - it means a lot 🙏. 

This was a very though day, but also one of the most memorable experiences of my life. 🤩 Now - I will rest🧘🏻‍♀️, but as always -  I am extremely motivated to push for more 🥳.

🔥Val d’Aran CDH 110k🔥- #8 of women, #49 of all (#1 W45-49) 
A new day out in the mountains⛰️. The Pyrenees showed it self from a beautiful side, with sun ☀️, blue sky - and fantastic views. But oh la la it was challenging 🥵and hot!🌶️ Tough climbs that never ended and technical trails, but managed to stay ok in the race on a medium day. Too exotic for me with threatening cows🐮, horses and running side by side with a huge wild boar 😳. High (400+) number of DNFs (the heat?) and the good thing about men starting out hard is that you can pass them throughout the race. So all in all happy with getting through and final position. Thanks for great support from @kallevignils, @karimettekallevig and @liseduegundersen❤️. Now some holiday (in the heat)…🏝️⛱️

🔥Ecotrail 80km🔥- 7:33 -🥈of women, #8 with the men
A good day in Oslo. The sun was shining☀️and I headed out in my backyard for a run🌳. Kept a strong and consistent pace the whole time and finished the race above my expectations💪. I had the lead for 72km, so a bit annoying that I wasn’t able to hold it all the way in, but still happy with final time and result🥳. Third time on the podium (2023 50km🥇, 2024 50km🥉). Thanks to mum, dad and Marius for support ❤️! Also thanks to the king of Ecotrail @didrikhermansen for coaching👏. 
Now onto the next… 🚀

2025 running year recap 🥳🏃🏻‍♀️
🇮🇹After starting the season with Chianti Ultra Trail 75k (#15) I got a stress fracture in my foot taking me out of running for some time🩼🧐. But with months of patience 🧘🏻‍♀️and alternative training🚶🏻‍♀️🚴🏻‍♀️🏋🏻‍♀️🏊🏼‍♀️I was back to normal training in August, a few weeks before this seasons’s big goal CCC by UTMB 101k. 
🇮🇹🇨🇭🇫🇷CCC ended up being my best running experience 🤩ending at 31st place (was ranked ~100), even with a broken pole after a fall. Happy 😁 to see the patience and discipline during the recovery paid off✅. 
🇫🇷Having been on the podium in Nice for the last two years, I didn’t manage to stay away this year either. I overstepped early in the race, but stubbornness helps and secured🥈at Roubion - Nice 107k. No surprise that I love la France 😍🍾. 
🇹🇭Final race of the season, the Asian major Chiang mai by UTMB 96k was the icing of the cake 🎂 in 2025, in a terribly hot and humid race (for 🙋🏻‍♀️ from 🇳🇴) collecting an 8th place😎. 

🙏2025 all in all - I am extremely proud of the achievements. And best of all, it has been so much fun. 2026 here I come 🚀.

🔥Chiang Mai Elephant 100k 🇹🇭by UTMB🔥 - #8 female, 🥇W45-49, #37/1099 total
96,5km ~ 5,000m elevation

Happy with the results🥳and within my goals for the day✅, but this was hot!🥵 A quick trip to Thailand to participate in the Asian Major of UTMB. I thought I enjoy the heat😎, but this day the humidity and heat broke me😅. I had cramps in my legs from about 40km to the end, so it ended up being a game of pushing through the pain😫. The course went mainly through the jungle🌿 outside Chiang Mai, with steep trails going straight up the hillside⛰️. Lovely scenery and nature, running through temples and small local towns🛕. A bit too exotic when passing a large snake🐍and several smaller ones. Running through the jungle alone in the dark afterwards was definitely a new adventure🐒.

All-in-all, thanks Thailand😘 and @thailand_byutmb_official, this was a great experience! 🇹🇭

🔥Roubion - Nice by UTMB 111k, ~5,700m elevation🔥 - 🥈 / #27 of all
Ok this was a though one😑, so extra fun to secure my third podium in Nice. I started out with an overstep and subsequent fall🩸after having ran less than 1km. The legs were heavy and I didn’t get into the flow, so I have to admit a DNF was very high up on the focus list🥵. The trails are very technical (rocky 🪨) which is definitely not my specialty downhills. However I managed to stay in the race and after the CP at 36km I did a push up the mountain, climbing from fourth to second place. I kept them behind me and started chasing the first place, but everything time I approached her, she increased the speed. So after having played Tom & Jerry 🐱🐭 for about 60km I gave up when it was about 10km left and tried to just secure the 2nd place. Congrats @chloe_svgn! 👏👏 
The view was beautiful and the weather was perfect ☀️☀️☀️. 
Thanks to @nils_dg for excellent crewing and getting me to continue and dig deeper when it was all dark…🤩.

🔥CCC by UTMB 🔥 - 101km, 6,000m elevation, from Courmayeur 🇮🇹, through 🇨🇭 and ending up in Chamonix 🇫🇷
#31 of the women, #112 overall, #2 in W45-49. Time: 13:59:08. 

I have been in recovery from a stress fracture in my foot since April and even though I have been getting in some hours of alternative training, my running volume has been significantly lower than wanted. This was my 2nd 100k and I was worried about how I would manage the distance. With that and being ranked ~#100 of women at start, I am extremely proud to end up at 31st place🥳. I started off in a controlled pace (mantra: jevnt og trutt), and really enjoyed the first climbs🤩. Right before the second peak @2,600m elevation I broke one of my poles after a fall (🙈), so there were some tough climbs after this. The weather also shifted to wind and rain 🌧️, but I kept repeating to myself «I’m 🇳🇴 - you’ve had a lot worse weather ❄️🌨️💨». Regardless, I managed to keep the pace and energy⚡️at an ok level, resulting in taking further places. For once, it felt like I was strong uphills 💪, ran well downhills 🚀 and managed good enough at the flats🛞. 

Thanks to my best-in-class supporter-family that follows me around and cheers for me❤️. You keep me going! And thanks to @nils_dg for excellent crewing even though I know it is more exhausting than running 100k😉. Also, thanks to all cheering along the route - racing in the Alps is magic 🤩.

Summer 2025 - first part 👧🏼👩🏻👨
A different summer this year, with the youngest family member being in Mexico for summer camp with @cisvnorge for four weeks (😳) and the family then being reduced to three… But even though we have missed him a lot, it has given us plenty of quality time and four great weeks with @liseduegundersen 💕🇪🇸🇳🇴

✅Yearly tradition, while the 👧🏼👦🏼 are at summer camp and @nils_dg is working, I have had some great days in the Alps training for the CCC 💯 @utmbworldseries in August. I spent 5 days in Chamonix🇫🇷 and Courmayeur 🇮🇹🥳 covering ~9,000m of elevation. As I am recovering from a stress fracture in my foot, it was mainly walking (in very steep hills 🥵) this time, but regardless a fantastic week in great scenery. Weather was 🌞, mountains 😘 and food 🍕🍝😙. 

I kinda like this tradition and am going home full of energy💥.
