  • Welcome to the long, fun journey from learning to xc ski to doing the 90 km Vasaloppet race! Seriously thanks to everuone that helped along the way. It wasn’t easy to pick a new sport, learn how to do it, but the glory in life is all about picking new challenges and diving into them full force.

    Hats off to you Warner! The entire 22 minute VLOG was full of entertainment. Loved all of the top athletes giving you training advice. Also, it was nice to see a few shots of Bennie and the Olsson family mixed in. Job well done!

    Congrats! Nice one. Two messages about it which I really like: The first would reflect the first half of it saying the journey is the goal. The second is more or less the proof that you can do anything successfully, if you do it with passion. And with the right friends.

We all know you are but still hate when people say they trained for a marathon in 2 weeks or something big like this with no training, failing to say that they are super in shape. Can be super misleading to people.

I know you were a likeable guy from Jon's old vlogs but I didn't know you were such a story teller and inspiration. Also the interviews were such a nice feature.

    I lost a bet with a Norwegian guy who hates XC skiing (I know right?!) and had to do the Vasaloppet. I am of Greek heritage and grew up and live in Malmö (snowing probably 1 week all year). I had never stood on skis before and the bet dictated no practice (obviously I cheated with this one) and made it in just shy of 11 hours. To anyone considering doing this, just do it, you will make it! I had around 25 km of practice and pulled it off! GO FOR IT!
