Mistress of Masters, Anne Margrethe Hausken Nordberg

Next week is the final of “Masters of the Masters”, and on Friday Aksel Lund Svindal (38), Magnus Midtbø (32), Håvard Tvedten (42) and Anne Margrethe Hausken Nordberg (45) will compete for the three places in the Season 12. Final.

After several tough competitions, it is finally the latter who throws the short straw.

– It was a very high level in that semi-final, there are tough guys I fought against. Of course I wanted to go all the way, but at the same time I am very happy with how far I came, says Hausken Nordberg to Nettavisen.

– Not so much map and compass

The former orientation runner made a huge impression on the competition and in the end became one of the girls who went the furthest.

However, he does not hide that it has been hard.

– I think there were many times that I just lay on the ground and it was completely done, but it is clear that everything that has to do with the sandbags was not entirely mine, she answers questions about what has been the hardest of the way.

– Maximum force and heavy work have not had much to do with my career, there was not so much map and compass in that competition here. But it was fun getting so far that I was able to try my luck at the classic brutal tasks, although they weren’t entirely easy for me, adds the 45-year-old.

– I could hardly walk

Hausken Nordberg resigned as an active orienteering runner in 2019 and was in good shape when the television recording began.

This is the first time he’s been asked to enter the popular NRK competition, and he was quick to say yes. Then almost immediately he started training for things he doesn’t usually train for in his own sport.

– I ran my last WC in 2019 and trained a lot last winter. But then came the crown, they also asked me about the “Master of Masters”. So I tried to strength train a little bit, and I tried a little bit on 90 degrees and stuff. But I didn’t stop for more than a minute before I finished completely. So it took me a bit of training before going to “Master of the Masters” laughs.

The semi-final and the challenge called “the idiot in the crown”, where participants have to run as many lengths as possible over and under obstacles at different heights, caused him a particularly heavy price.

– I could hardly go after the semifinals, and had to go up and down the stairs backwards, he laughs.

– All four of us had a sore thigh after the “idiot in the crown”, and we quickly discovered that it was the thigh with which you went down first. You put all the weight on it, so it was completely destroyed. So the bike ride when I got home was short and quiet, he adds.

– Social experiment

With the bike ride, Hausken Nordberg refers to the first thing he did when he got home from the recording.

Then she went straight for a bike ride with her husband.

– We took a bike ride and talked a bit, we also did something that we would never do otherwise, and we picked up the kids from kindergarten and school together. Those in elementary school tend to go home together and were very surprised when we picked them up. It was very popular.

Now that the “Master of Masters” has finished, many good memories remain.

– I’ll probably remember the social better. I didn’t know anyone beforehand, and it’s very special to travel with people you don’t know. So it’s kind of a social experiment. And I needed some time in the beginning to find my place. It was very unusual, but it wasn’t long before I was able to be myself and really enjoy the ride, she says.
