100 Miles of Darkness and Light with Marcus Kjellberg
<p>Watch Marcus Kjellberg's ultrarunning adventures</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@MarcusKjellberg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">@MarcusKjellberg</a></p><p>Marcus is known for taking on 100-mile ultras, the kind of suffering you choose to find out how resilient you are, but this year Marcus found himself at theintersection of chosen suffering and the kind that arrives uninvited.</p><p>Over the past decade, the 53-year-old has built a life around going farther into uncertainty than most people will ever choose to go. In addition to work and family life, event races at Lavaredo, Snowdonia, Chamonix, and Kullaberg, Sweden have become seasonal rites of passage, rituals for challenge and growth. Marcus also competes with an added layer of difficulty that most ultrarunners never have to consider: managing Type 1 diabetes in real time across 20-plus hours of racing. During a race, his continuous glucose monitor becomes another data stream to manage — its rising and falling trend lines mirror the elevation profile on a mountain ultra course. Both demand constant adjustment. Both punish overcorrection. And both require staying calm while the line moves in directions you don’t always control.</p><p>In our chat, we explored how the skills required to manage extreme distance — controlling emotional spikes, making clear decisions under fatigue, and continuing forward into the uknown— became critically relevant when Marcus’s wife was diagnosed with cancer.</p><p><br></p>

Island Hopping with EX Swimrun Founder Nicholas Roman
<p><a href="https://www.outdoorjournal.com/race-sweden-archipelago-ex-swimrun-nicholas-roman/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">A Wild New Race Emerges in Sweden’s Archipelago with EX Swimrun Founder Nicholas Roman</a></p><p>Follow EX Swimrun and Nicholas Roman:</p><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/roman_nicholas/?hl=en&ref=outdoorjournal.com" rel="noreferrer">@roman_nicholas</a>, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/exswimrun/?hl=en&ref=outdoorjournal.com" rel="noreferrer">@exswimrun</a></p><p>Find the perfect race format and distance for you at <a href="https://en.exswimrun.se/?ref=outdoorjournal.com" rel="noreferrer">EXSWIMRUN.SE</a></p><p><a href="https://eu.sumarpo.com/products/mens-hyper-light-eco-swimrun" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Sumarpo Hyperlight</a> - coupon code OJ20</p><p>Nicholas Roman is the founder and CEO of EX Swimrun, one of the most innovative race organizations in the sport, based in the Swedish archipelago where swimrun itself was born. He’s an entrepreneur, a lifelong island dweller, and a race director who believes the ultimate test of a course is whether it’s so compelling you can’t help but race it yourself—which he does.</p><p>This August, I’ll be on his start line, racing EX Swimrun and turning it into a family trip to Stockholm, bringing my kids into the heart of the archipelago </p><p>So this conversation is both an interview and a kind of reconnaissance mission—inside the mind of the man designing the course I’ll soon be swimming and running across.</p><p>We talk about the evolution of swimrun gear, the future of open-world “safari” racing, why so many former triathletes are being drawn to the freedom of island-hopping, and how innovation can coexist with deep respect for Swedish outdoor tradition.</p><p><br></p>

He’s run across the Sahara Desert. He’s crossed the Atacama. He’s skied to the North Pole. He’s led expeditions through the high Arctic, through jungles, through places most of us only ever see on a map. And in between all of that, he’s faced something even more personal — a battle with blood cancer — and came back not just to survive, but to keep pushing the edges of what’s possible.</p><p><br></p>
