During the BMW Oslo Marathon 2016, Team Hansen will participate in the new concept Triple Team. Team Hansen consists of the members Ida Hansen (1995), Isabel Aarnes (1984), Audun Nilsen Raaer (1984), Martin Hansen (1992), Gunnar Hansen (1967) and Bjørn Hansen (1965). Where the last three will participate in Triple Team 2016.

Team Hansen was established in 2015 with a view to better development and performance in certain sports as well as to get a good unity in the group and motivate each other so that the joy of training is optimal. The Hansen family has been active and had achievements in various sports.

-We have selected three sports that we will focus on in the future as one team. As the team logo suggests, the focus is mostly on cycling, followed by running and then cross-country skiing. The reason why cycling comes as the first priority is simply because all 3 who started the team do cycling, and have performed within this before, says Team Hansen.

Team Hansen does not aim to be the best, but to perform in several sports to their level, be able to spread joy on the tracks and in the competitions where they participate.

How does Team Hansen train?

We have two regular days a week with joint training where we one of the days invite those who want to join a training session through our Facebook page. Since we do three different sports that are relatively years specific, we vary the training according to which season we are in with cycling, running or cross-country skiing. We also try to get through runs of competition trails / tracks or similar 1-3 weeks before the competition itself, says Team Hansen.

With three different sports, Team Hansen often competes in typical triple competitions. The training is not only about achievements, but also their further development as a team and for each individual member.

Why Triple Team?

We want to participate in the Triple Team during the Oslo Marathon, simply because we think the concept is ingenious considering that it should be well adapted to each individual runner who runs each distance. Triple team will be a folk festival and with such an atmosphere in and around the trail, this will be a perfect competition for us to participate in, says Team Hansen.

Gunnar, Martin and Bjørn participate in the Triple Team to be able to collaborate well in a good time in terms of performance for their level together in races.
