I've never seen such a polite and softly spoken savage

[@wandelpassiert8064]

This is so inspiring both to run an ultra as well as to go to Norway in the winter. What a cinematographic masterpiece and a motivational video of extra class!

[@goranwinblad]

Wow thanks for that nice comment makes me very happy to hear 😊

[@mandrewsvideos]

The fact that you not only completed this, but came first, while documenting the experience, is amazing. Thank you for creating such a well crafted documentary.

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks for your nice comment and for watching 🙏😊

[@adriancritchley2485]

Holy s**t that steep bit down towards the sea about 2/3 of the way through looked dangerous. You're such a great filmmaker!

[@goranwinblad]

Yeah but felt safe when I took it carefully. Thanks 😊

[@adriancritchley2485]

Yeah you made it look easy

[@felixthemountainlover]

Thank you Göran - you are such an inspiring guy. Your videos always motivate me! ❤

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks for watching, glad to hear 😊

[@michaelmetternich]

Great respect for this achievement, anyone who has ever run in the snow knows the effort involved. The whole thing over 50 kilometres, in this terrain, into the dark and shooting a video at the same time, words fail me. You are a mental monster! Congratulations on winning the race. Big, big respect!!!

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks 🙏😊

[@johnreeves3876]

Amazing race. Even as a spectator I have to thank the runners in the night before for their trail blazing journey. On another note after seeing the trail I was shocked you managed the finish the way you did goals and all.

[@goranwinblad]

Yeah it was an epic race yeah for sure their tracks helped a lot!

[@anandcatrionavo6112]

What an insane route. Congrats

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks! 😊

[@_Zabamund_]

Kudos to you and to everyone that took part 👏

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks!

[@sidgupta2164]

I salute your spirit Göran. Thank you for sharing this experience

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks and thanks for watching 😊

[@bobwundaye]

I love that your videos always have such a 'real' element to them. This is amazing in so many ways. Congrats on a great experience and for sharing it with us!

[@goranwinblad]

Thank you so much!

[@Balintrebeka]

This was insane effort! Not to mention even filming it. Thanks for sharing and huge congrats! Well deserved!

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks! 🙏

[@woutpeters45]

That was brutal, beautiful and inspiring all together. Finishing first was your goal, but finishing the race no mater what position is a victory in itself. Congratulations to all finishers, you can be proud.

[@goranwinblad]

Yeah it truly was, super glad to hear you found it inspirational and you are truly right about all finishers of this course being a victory on itself.

[@unnameduserr]

Fun seeing you get into ultras and sharing your experiences! Embrace the suck when it arrives, the high on clouds always returns👏I had my recent best runners high during a race while knee deep through "puddles(?)" 03.00 in the morning

[@goranwinblad]

That’s so true haha ok that’s cool to hear!

[@Ian_Fox_adv]

Congratulations on getting 1st place Göran! Thank you for making another excellent video, I find your channel very inspiring since I've taken up running again 🙌🏻

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks, glad to hear! 😊

[@evanwakelin7944]

20:40 This is why I'm such a big fan of yours Goran, and why I look up to you. As a stressed out father, I find running to be one of the few things 'I can control', and makes me feel a lot lighter and happier.

[@goranwinblad]

Glad to hear, yeah that is so true!

[@runningforviews]

What a brutal race! Congrats!

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks 😊

[@rikherrygers5585]

Always and in many ways inspired by your vids. Also love your humble way of being and talking. Big thanks for getting me on my bike again.

[@goranwinblad]

Wow thanks for your nice comment and support of the channel 🙏😊

[@davidrogers7787]

Amazing video, Goran. To not only navigate that course, win the thing, but also film it to that standard! Crazy. Thank you for sharing your latest (and greatest!) adventure with us. Inspirational.

[@goranwinblad]

Wow thanks for your nice comment makes me very happy to hear 😊

[@jojosuuu]

Wow that’s a tremendous effort! You have proven humbleness & hard work plus a bit of luck can prevail in trying times! Thanks to people like you I’ll be trying to complete an urban ultramarathon here in hot Singapore next week.

[@Kelly_Ben]

Good luck!!

[@li0ngr33n]

Congratulations 🎉🎉👏🏾👏🏾💪🏾💪🏾🙂

[@goranwinblad]

Thank you!!

[@erinoconnor537]

Going down the cliff edge at the circle of death was craaaaazy. I would have been thinking the gps was way wrong, surely that can’t be the route!!

[@goranwinblad]

Haha yeah that was a cool place!

[@johnbuchanan578]

Well done, that was a tough one.

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks!

[@ChrisBranch]

Absolutely brilliant film, and amazing effort in the race. Congratulations on the win! That deep snow (and the walking lunges you had to do through them) looked brutal! But such beautiful scenery, I'd love to do a winter race like this one day ☺️🙏

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks so much for your nice comment very happy to hear you liked it and yeah you should!

[@johngardner1898]

Remarkable skills Gorian! Your orienteering is outstanding. And I don't think many people realize how difficult it is to run in the cold, when you perspire, it gets dark and you get chilled. Congratulations!

[@Pappamea81]

What a beast! Snyggt Göran 👏🏻 Tack för inspirationen du ger!

[@1994savvas]

This is mental! Your strength can't be described, but everyone needs to be crazy to actually try this race! Looks so scary being alone in such rough terrain.

[@davidhayward1261]

A massive well done. That course was breathtaking. Great video yet again. Inspiring. 🎉👍🏃🏻‍♂️💪🌲🙏

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! 😊

[@RetroSpecMusic]

What a fantastic and inspirational video. I was glued to it for every second. Congratulations on the win!

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks! really happy to hear you liked it 😊

[@tubejohn123]

That was an amazing video and a fantastic and very difficult race, very inspiring, be proud and well done!

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks glad to hear you found it inspiring! 😊

[@drewman747]

Great race! I really enjoyed the scenery and of course the awesomeness of what people are able to overcome. Well, I guess I will push on against my sore body and do a recovery run today. Congratulations on your win.

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks, nice hope you have a good run! 😊

[@sbsb4995]

Excellent episode 🎉❤

[@goranwinblad]

Wow Goran!! This was madness 😮 Thanks for motivating us to step out 🤗

[@goranwinblad]

[@stanislawrybinski]

what an effort, Göran! congratulations on finishing, and finishing first!

[@goranwinblad]

Thank you very much!

[@Fun-pf9lw]

This was absolutely AWESOME to watch. The scenery, the super challenging terrain, especially the circle of death when your legs must have been so tired. Spectacular job! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks, makes me very happy to hear glad you liked it!

[@Eviemay2]

Congratulations! 🌟💗

[@goranwinblad]

Thank you!!

[@algoritmerna6033]

Nice editing Göran! Looks great with 2 camera angles👌

[@goranwinblad]

Thank you 🙌

[@medusa3592]

Getting all the way to and across the finish line is a win. 🍾😂🏆

[@goranwinblad]

Yeps! 😊

[@uselessDM]

Not knowing what lays before you is a key ingredient to managing any challenge in life I find 😄

[@goranwinblad]

So true!

[@f.a.5212]

thx for this video : it's nice to hear and see what's possible, and enjoy the quality !

[@goranwinblad]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@KC_rocka]

What a beautiful, magical place to run in, congratulations on winning such an amazing race, you're videos are always so inspiring.

[@goranwinblad]

Yeah I love this island of Jeløy! Thanks makes me very happy to hear.

[@fergusdenoon1255]

Very inspiring, Goran... You've inspired me to make the statement "I ain't ever going to do that crazy shit"😮

[@goranwinblad]

😅

[@antonkruse2246]

You are an inspiration to us viewers. Thank you for this incredible video!

[@goranwinblad]

Wow, thank you for that nice comment 😊

[@matteoberra2599]

FANTASTIC...great stuff Goran...keep on keeping on

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks, will do!

[@niknovichkov]

It felt like a straight line mission, such great views! Thanks for the video and great job!

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks for your nice comment and for watching 😊

[@ebal08]

Amazing work Göran!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🎉 You are such an inspiration.

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks, glad to hear 😊

[@mrnobody-k3k]

nice and strong, my counter to that was Trail da Raia in Portugal in August, it was shorter 43K but it was super hot in the mountains. I finished after 7h. Once again well done :) 💪🏻👋🏻

[@MaiTravelSite]

I totally agree with what you say at 21:08 , one of the reasons I like doing ultras as well!! and congratulations one the win!!

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks 🙏 😊

[@herceg6772]

Hi Göran, what a great and inspiring video. Norway has a truly great looking mountains and lakes. Also, it's fantastic how you can have your GoPro on a "unvisible" stick. Going on a halfmarathon distance trail this summer. Looking forward to that.

[@KonstantinosDouros]

Congratulations!! Very motivative!!! Congratulations for your sponsor Coros! I hope many more help you keep the videos going!

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks glad to hear! Yeah I’m very happy about that love their watches and have been using them for years so really glad to have them as a supporter of the channel going forwards 😊

[@Mookiethedog]

Amazing run...loved the scenery and commentary. The Circle of Death looked gnarly climbing down as it got dark. So cool you made your goal especially after how tough the 100Km guys were feeling on the first (only) lap.

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks! Yeah was a really fun experience 😊

[@sreenathramanath274]

Came across your channel .. Nice Vlog's .. Inspiring .. For someone from the humid and hot tropical climate, I am wonderstruck at your sheer mental grit to navigate the tough nature and weather, completely relying on technology, gut feel and courage .. I do keep doing things, experimenting small variations, running barefoot, in the rain, have done three marathons barefoot, but mostly run as I enjoy running .. running for me is a connection to nature and I am a minimalist .. but ultras and extreme running does need a good understanding of oneself, surroundings and that animal/survival instinct .. amazing documentary .. happy to come across your channel !!

[@misterSaragi]

Tack för detta Göran, du fortsätter att vara en inspiration för oss andra som drömmer om att springa jobbiga men givande lopp!

[@goranwinblad]

Tack, kul att höra!

[@jippiijajee]

Seeing you goind really steep down crazy looking path, you check your watch and say "yeah, I am on track". Made me so happy! I find myself, too, at similar situations. Ps. I'm a Finn and deep snow means for me something above the knee 🙈

[@kevinabate6056]

That's a gnarly race. Big fan. I've gotten stuck out before liker that.

[@lefterisnydras4860]

well done my man, really well done! You are an inspiration, a strong soul with a kind heart!

[@goranwinblad]

Thank you so much 😊

[@steve24550]

[@goranwinblad]

Thank you very much! 😊

[@MarcoAPared]

Incredible scenery! Awesome video

[@ВалерійМазний]

It’s impressive! Well done! Congratulations! 🎉🎉🎉

[@Festuke]

You’re just amazing👏! Even though I haven’t run any ultras yet, videos like these give a real and authentic feel of it. That makes it just a little less scary if I ever should do one my self. Thank you 🙏

[@goranwinblad]

Wow, thank you, glad to hear 😊

[@muraterkocevic9743]

You are my Super Hero!

[@Alexander.Grekhov]

Hello from Ukraine! Thank you for such inspiration! You have such beautiful scenery in Norway!

Very nice work, Goran!💪

[@martinwagner5008]

1,5 h före tvåan och du var stressad i butiken, haha livet ändå. Grymt starkt jobbat, imponerande!

[@goranwinblad]

Haha tack 😅

[@staceyd]

Thank you for taking us along this journey with with you. Seeing this sort of beauty is amazing- we don’t have anything much like this here in Australia, and what an incredibly challenging route. One of my favourite vids of yours 😁👍

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks for watching m, glad to hear!

[@eldritchmonsterofnorfolk7253]

Way to go Goran! Thank you for sharing not just the run, but the lessons you experienced along the way.

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks for watching 😊

[@blueeyedboy-oc1to]

That was incredible well done! I love watching your videos for no other reason than the weather in Norway appears to be much worse than here in Scotland. I admire how you stay motivated to just get out there in those conditions let alone run that distance you are truly a role model for runners everywhere Amazing ❤

[@goranwinblad]

Thank you very much! 😊

[@Leesadventure]

What an amazing achievement. So inspiring. I salute you. 🫡

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks for your nice comment, cool to hear I’m sure you can do it if you work hard for it! 😁

Absolutely beautiful and incredible route! Congratulations on a hard earned finish!! I've been keeping myself on the treadmill because my trails are a little snowy... you've shamed me into getting out there! There's months left of winter, I need to suck it up! 😂
