Amazing job! Im a climber (my main sport) and I know the test from Magnus' channel. The idea of the test is not just to test the physical ability of the person, but also the mental resilience that you need for this kind of job. You proved you are remarkably strong minded Göran, congrats!
Great job Göran. ex Norwegian long-range recon patrol here, was no treadmill at my time, just outdoor endurance training. This test is very relevant for LRRP, pack and uphill is very exhausting, but yeah, runners, cross-country skiers, orientation runners, do this very well. The military record that impressed me the most was the military 30 km march, with 11 kg pack and military boots. The record run was in 2 hours by a well known cross-country skier, maybe it's beaten now, but that record stood for many years. The old endurance 'selection test for 'jeger', was a 5k meter track run. In uniform, army boots and GRU. The GRU was 3-4 kg combat belt with water bottle, extra ammo magazines, knife, gas mask. No idea what the record run was, I got 19 min and the faster guys did it in 17 min, as a rock climber, I had no chance against the best in endurance, one in my squad was on the national team in biathlon. Training was targeting week long patrols, in cold snowy conditions with very little food and sleep, week long ski expeditions, winter gear was too much to carry in a pack, pulled sledges, uphill was brutal. Downhill pretty tricky, ski down with pack and heavy sledge behind, if falling in steep terrain, the sledge would push you so deep into the snow, that it took a rescue mission to dig out the unlucky one. I recall one guy he just vanished, after a search following his tracks, all we could see was a hole in the snow where he had deep dived into. Very funny, we couldn't stop laughing while digging him out. Anyway, you got the endurance needed with a huge margin for the Norwegian LRRP. The long range winter patrols is a specialty of Swedish, Finns and Norwegians, very high standards on this, we have so much empty space in north, that you need to cover quite a distance on a patrol.
Hey, remember that the soldier in magnus film did this test the day after being in the mountains on a 30 plus hour exercise with no sleep and full kit in winter.
also after various strength exercises before the treadmill thing, but I imagine not having recovered from the day before would have been the biggest factor, by far...
This was awesome, love to see endurance guys try this test! I actually served with these guys and they are completely nuts. Their motto is "no respect for distance" and they are regularly sent out on marches where they have no idea how long they will be going for and just go on for literally days. I've done this test a few time myself and 30 minutes is completely insane to me, never even been close. However I feel like I have to correct you on one thing, the backpack is supposed to be 25kg not 20. And I think that 25% increase definitely makes a difference. I would love to see you try it again with the right weight and see if you could make it to 30 then, you seemed to have quite a bit left so you might actually be able to! And if you decide to do it again the main advice we got in the army is to always walk as much as possible. If you look at how much your backpack bounces up and down when you're jogging compared to how stable the Norwegian soldier keeps his when walking that is a lot of completely wasted energy. The only reasons to run are if you can't keep the pace or if you're main walking muscles are close to completely failing and you absolutely needed to give them a break. Anyway, like I said I would absolutely love to see you do it again!
That’s cool to hear and thanks for sharing! Ahh your are right had to recheck Magnus video and I thought they said 20kg that for sure makes a difference, I didn’t fine tune my backpack so it was a bit over 20kg but for sure not 25 so yeah that would have been harder. You are right I might have to do it again 😁
@@goranwinblad Wow that was a quick response, it's so cool when creators engage with their communities! Been watching your videos for years now since the I ran everyday for a year video, and you've really inspired a lot to keep consistent in my training goals! Good luck on the next attempt :D, I might have to do one myself to see if I can even pass 20min at this point.
@@goranwinblad Did you weigh the camera and gimball? Looking at the descriptions of both of them it equals out to around 1.5kg total. So with a 20kg ish loaded bag you're about 5kg+ short. Insane prestation nonetheless! Trying to get there myself but nowhere close yet.
Sjuuuukt bra jobbat. Såg videon från Magnus kanal, helt otroligt att soldaten klarar av 30min med den sjuka styrkan han har. Att du skulle slå honom var jag inte alls orolig över. Otroligt starkt jobbat!!
The amazing part to me is that sure, they're wearing a 20kg pack, but those men probably have a good 15-20kg more muscle too making the endurance aspect even harder. Crazy!
Wow! You are a machine! I can't beleive you kept commentating throught the whole test hahah. I thought you would stop talking after 15 min at least. It shows how dedicated you are to give us top notch videos! Thank you for that :) I'm looking forward to the uphill race video
Great effort and result Göran! Would be very cool if you had the chance to do something with Magnus some day, he needs to be coached to get a better running form for sure :D
Absolutely amazing effort! Did the same challenge myself and managed to get to the 25 min mark but I literally collapsed in a heap after that, and how you could keep talking is beyond me... But, now I got to try for 31 min too..:) Thanks for an awesome video!
Seems like a perfect way to get injured. But you are younger than me. Just like soldiers, i would start with walking around with 25kgs on my back - get knees slowly ready for extra weight. But you are well trained and prepared, kudos to you.
I just have to say, I really respect the fact that you pushed yourself at the end! That mentality is golden! I am now a subscriber, keep on making great content like this!
One thing I learned as a U.S. Marine was on long hikes, I was told by our Gunnery Sergeant-when on marches or rucks runs was have “Big hearts, strong backs and hard feet”. And I can see with our Norwegian Brothers it is no different! Good work!
Endurance monster. Jogging with that weight must be nuts. Also they said the official weight was 25 but you must be much lighter than the soldier so it "should" be comparable? Idk. Good job :) kinda want to try it myself now
Great effort. Well done. Next - Fell Racing. Go to Cumbria, North England, for Guides Race. Up the mountain - maybe 15 minutes - then down again - maybe 2 minutes 😊
Long rucks are something else. One of the nice things about doing one outside is you can go between walking (3.5mph is my prefered pace) and brisk jogging (around 5-6 for me). Maintaining a constant 4.3ish would be crazy for even just 30min on those inclines
it's impressive to do over 30 minutts, even with a little light backpack. But next time do it the day after you have been on an mountain trip and put in some muscle training before, it can be light weight, because you are supposed to go into this already tired and worn out. The Norwegians do this after an +-35 hours march in the mountains + all the gym exercise, it is an killer and demands a lot of mental strength.
Hey, Norwegian soldier speaking. This is our march speed. Although standard march is 6km/h and we don't do 30m we do 50m with 10m rest. Then 50-10-50-10 etc. Although usually our bags weight only 15kg but we are wearing a lot more gear on person, with the vest and helmet. And yes. You get very hot. We are lucky enough that our gear has this in mind. Our jackets open up and so do our pants to ventilate our heat. We usually only wear one layer of wool during march. Our backpacks are probably quite a bit better than the one you're using and so are our boots. Id assume. There not all that much I can say about what we do as it would start boardering on giving out information that people don't need to know. But yeah it gets hard if you're not used to it. But don't jog. Walk, jogging really kills your feet and how far you've able to push it
Great challenge! There's a few military tests that combine many of the endurance aspects with the muscular strength and endurance. In Belgium we have the Bergham Run, a test for the special forces where they need to run an 8K loop in under 50 minutes wearing a 20kg backpack and in boots. An other test they have is the Tender Feet which has no fixed distance. You run (again wearing a 20kg backpack) from checkpoint to checkpoint. At the checkpoint you get instructions to get to the next checkpoint using different types of maps. You have to chart your own path using card and compass. Only at the penultimate checkpoint will they tell you the test is nearing its end. The test can go on for almost 150km and 48 hours. If you were to fancy a challenge 🫡
Looking at your Treadmill speed, did you do this at 8km per hour instead of 7? Great effort. A lot of military endurance tests are just as much about the mental fortitude to push as it is the physical. But then again, I don't know many endurance tests/races that aren't heavily reliant on both
The existing categories in weighted running are fastest mile in a bombsuit (~24-36 kg, I guess depending on fit) and marathon wearing a refrigerator (~30 kg). As someone who can do 4k at a 6:20 pace with 34kg I think I am qualified to tell you that you did great, crushing it with no specific training.
Insert ”fkn legend” meme here. Awesome! Im doing alot of threshold on my indoor bike in my cramped home office, the heat and sweat adds so much to the mental struggle. Well done!!
Göran this is excellent. I don’t have a very sophisticated treadmill but it allows me to adjust the gradient between settings of 0 to 10 in 0.5 increments (don’t know the calibration). So, I do a “civilian” version of this whereby I set a pace 7kph (~8.6min/km) 10min at 0grad then +0.5grad every 3min in training gear (no backpack or hand weight). It is a deceptively difficult but a great indication of variations in your fitness. 70mins (if I make it!) well spent.
Well done, but the correct weight was 25 kg (as others have mentioned in the comments) and the gun weights a little bit more then 4 kg (Evan, the soldier, mentions it). But still, it's impressive you could do it on the first try. Excellent video!
80-93lbs, about 40-43KG is what I carried for about 12kg, in the US Infantry in Europe’s Eastern hilly terrain, with land navigation. Conditioning is key
Good effort! I believe at 20kg + 3.5kg you have 35-36 minutes in you, if you went until muscular failure (i.e. flying off the treadmill 🙂) Looking forward to seeing you do this again with 25kg + 3.5kg. Well done! Very inspiring!
This guy is the perfect antidote for depression. He’s funny without trying to be. And as much as I love his accent, I do wish he’d stop pronouncing his J as a Y! Thank you 🔥🔥🔥
Incredible achievement. I can only dream of having that level of fitness. I am not sure though that it is wise to demonstrate you can be called up for military service! 😀
I could never do this, not a chance in hell. But Magnus and that Adonis looking specimen of a man did this after doing several other exercises, those men are beasts.
Greetings from Norway. Awesomely done Gøran. Very impressive. But if you want to compare with Magnus and Even , you must have finished a 35-hour extreme hike the day before. Just sayin. But still very impressive.
For context, in the test, they did this after a series of strength tests, and the day after a full day of walking up and down a mountain, for almost 24 hours~
I think they do 35 hours mountain exercise then in the gym for weights sessions etc lastly the the treadmill! Is that what you did or just the last bit on the treadmill?
I'd think that with the 20kg rucking backpack, having enough back strength to carry 20kg for long periods of time (or...just better back and core strength) would make this exponentially easier
The fact that you could talk to the camera throughout this grueling test is amazing in itself!
Oh yeah that’s true.
#FNC
Soldier has their 10lb rifle, camera might weight barely half that
Amazing job!
Im a climber (my main sport) and I know the test from Magnus' channel. The idea of the test is not just to test the physical ability of the person, but also the mental resilience that you need for this kind of job. You proved you are remarkably strong minded Göran, congrats!

But the soldier did beat his own personal record!
@@timebor I know, awesome. Imagine if he started fresh.
Winter tho? I don't know much about the South of Norway, but to me, that looked like summer. A lot of mountains have snow in summer
@@avlinrbdig5715 I'm pretty sure they mentioned it being summer. Magnus even complained about getting really hot in the sun
also after various strength exercises before the treadmill thing, but I imagine not having recovered from the day before would have been the biggest factor, by far...
you barely beat him and you are a long distance runner and he is a muscular soldier,just proves how hardcore that soldier is.
Well done Göran. The soldier in Magnus Midtbøs video completed a 30hrs+ recon/extraction the day before 😮
This was awesome, love to see endurance guys try this test! I actually served with these guys and they are completely nuts.

Well done Goran! I was keeping my fingers crossed for you. Good luck with the race
You madman!!! That is inspirational stuff, the "i see you do something crazy and i will do it too" attitude is amazing
Thanks!
The 30min by that soldier is crazy, that guys is so large and strong and could still do 30min. The over all fitness required for that is high.
Yeah I agree that’s really impressive to have that endurance capacity and also be that strong!
The amazing part to me is that sure, they're wearing a 20kg pack, but those men probably have a good 15-20kg more muscle too making the endurance aspect even harder. Crazy!
@@MillieMoses and they were pretty ore exhausted by the former stuff they had to endure.
You might have to factor in certain ... supplements
@@hodgereeceman they are on missions for over a month without getting resupplies and you think taking needles of drugs is their focus?

As a former soldier in a recon unit i can relate to these kinds of tests. They will test your limits😊
Well done, Well done indeed👍
You are so right, Goran. There is something wrong with you. But that is what makes your channel so much fun. Well done my brother...
Haha thanks 😅
your wife laughing on your "how does it look" answer is everything 🥰
I was a Marine reconnaissance scout years ago, very interesting and great job mate.
Grymma videos Göran!! Fortsätt så 👏👏👏
That was insane, what a huge achievement. Truly something to be proud of.
Thanks!
Can't wait to watch this video :) you motivated me to started running and it's amazing!
Glad to hear and really happy to hear that you get motivated by my videos. Thanks for watching and congrats on getting into running! 😃

Huge respect to you Göran! When you ran 29 minutes, I was telling myself "don’t dare to give up"!! Godt jobba mannen!!
Thank you 🙌
Goran, that was great! What a fantastic effort!
Many thanks!
Great effort. Well done. Next - Fell Racing. Go to Cumbria, North England, for Guides Race. Up the mountain - maybe 15 minutes - then down again - maybe 2 minutes 😊
Remember they did it after a 37 hour long range Reconnaissance mission the day before :)
Yeah that’s true, will maybe have to do it again running an Ultra the day before 😅
You did great. Congratulations, Göran. 👏
Thank you! 😃
Wow. Mighty impressive. Especially your mental toughness.
Long rucks are something else. One of the nice things about doing one outside is you can go between walking (3.5mph is my prefered pace) and brisk jogging (around 5-6 for me). Maintaining a constant 4.3ish would be crazy for even just 30min on those inclines

Hello Göran mega respect! Great performance!
Thanks!
@Göran Winblad What a grueling test 😮I was suffering just watching 😅congratulations 💪👏
Thanks!
Wow. Legendary. Göran, ran, ran and 🏃♀️ ran.
the way you packed the backpack did you no favours :)
Haha, true my packing skills would probably make me unfit for the military 😅
Your videos are awesome, and your positivity is infectious. Got a new sub here sir, keep up the good work and keep having fun! 🇨🇦
Thanks and welcome! 😊
it's impressive to do over 30 minutts, even with a little light backpack.

I would love to see a collaboration with Magnus Mitdbø 😍
Yeah that would be super cool 😁
This is the most riveting treadmill drama. Making a boring treadmill this dramatic is some serious story telling.
Haha yeah tried my best to make 13 min on a treadmill in a small white room interesting, thanks 😊
Well done Göran!
Your tough as nails brotha- that ruck is no joke
Insert ”fkn legend” meme here. Awesome! Im doing alot of threshold on my indoor bike in my cramped home office, the heat and sweat adds so much to the mental struggle. Well done!!

Would be so awesome if you made a video med Magnus on either climbing or running (or both) :D
Yeah I agree that would be super cool 😁
This looks so tough. Makes my personal best I got at a local 5k look like a cake walk. Got first place at least for my age group 😅
Yeah it was tough but pushing your limits on a 5k I would say is just as tough. Cool to hear congrats on the AG win! 🤩
@@goranwinblad thanks so much, you’ve been a great source of inspiration on my running endeavors.
Great video, you should Try the British parachute regiment one next 10 miles, with 37lbs plus rifle, 1h 50min over undulating terrain
Thanks and thanks for the suggestion!
Amazing. Well done - interesting challenge. Not for me to do, but great video to illustrate the brutality of these fitness tests.
Thanks! 😁
How did your next run after this feel when you didn't have to wear a heavy back pack?
men fyyyy! grymt stark du är!!
Tack 😅
Bro I couldn't survive doing this test for 30 minutes while carrying 30 POUNDS XD that is freaking BRUTAL
Well done, but the correct weight was 25 kg (as others have mentioned in the comments) and the gun weights a little bit more then 4 kg (Evan, the soldier, mentions it). But still, it's impressive you could do it on the first try. Excellent video!

Good effort!
I believe at 20kg + 3.5kg you have 35-36 minutes in you, if you went until muscular failure (i.e. flying off the treadmill 🙂)
Looking forward to seeing you do this again with 25kg + 3.5kg.
Well done! Very inspiring!

I could never do this, not a chance in hell. But Magnus and that Adonis looking specimen of a man did this after doing several other exercises, those men are beasts.
Greetings from Norway. Awesomely done Gøran. Very impressive. But if you want to compare with Magnus and Even , you must have finished a 35-hour extreme hike the day before. Just sayin. But still very impressive.
you beast, Göran 😱
For context, in the test, they did this after a series of strength tests, and the day after a full day of walking up and down a mountain, for almost 24 hours~
Yeah, I absolutely enjoyed watching this, what a stupid challenge, extraordinary well done!
Thanks 😅
Wow! Great job!
Thank you!
I have the same boots…and they are always coming untied with the original laces 😂
😅
even from magnus' channel is just built different
I think they do 35 hours mountain exercise then in the gym for weights sessions etc lastly the the treadmill! Is that what you did or just the last bit on the treadmill?
Great job and I love the background music. Anyone know who it is?
