the quiet engine

Mileage Game isn’t about winning races.
 It’s about learning how to move through life — under pressure, under doubt, under silence — and still choosing forward motion.
These posts are not just about HYROX.
 They are about the evolution of a human engine.
Inside the Mileage Game is where I bring those stories together — not as snapshots of results, but as a living record of process. This space is part logbook, part reflection — a place to connect the science of training with the art of preparation, and to explore what really drives performance over time.
For me, the journey has never been about chasing the next finish line — it’s been about understanding what it takes to keep evolving. From my early years on the national cross-country ski team to ultramarathons, mountain running, and now HYROX, the question has always been the same: How can I keep improving, even as the landscape changes?
That curiosity is what built Mileage Game — a framework grounded in structure, sustainability, and storytelling. This blog will unpack that framework in real time. You’ll see how I apply Norwegian threshold principles, the Easy Interval Method, and hybrid conditioning — not in theory, but in practice. How I adjust when life shifts. How I balance endurance, strength, and recovery. And how I continue to test, refine, and trust the process.
But Inside the Mileage Game isn’t just about training methods — it’s about the mindset behind them. The lessons learned from setbacks, the recalibrations that follow injury, the discipline that comes from data, and the perspective that only time can teach. Each post will connect to a moment in the journey — a race, a phase of preparation, or a shift in approach — revealing both the strategy and the story beneath it.
You’ll find detailed breakdowns — race plans, reflections, gear tests, heart-rate analysis — alongside broader insights on growth, focus, and longevity. Whether it’s the build to Toronto, the road to Vancouver, or the long path toward Sweden, this is where I’ll track the evolution — one week, one block, one step at a time.
This isn’t a highlights reel. It’s a blueprint in motion. My hope is that it offers something useful — for athletes refining their own systems, coaches seeking new frameworks, or anyone simply curious about the intersection of endurance, age, and ambition.
Thanks for being here. The blueprint is set. The work continues.

author’s note

I write here to understand the work — not just the splits and the heart rate, but the mindset, the setbacks, and the moments that quietly shape who I’m becoming. This space isn’t about perfection; it’s about the real process of building, rebuilding, and staying honest along the way.
