This week I finally got to sit down with my good friend Anton Myhrvold for a conversation about longevity, consistency and passion.
Anton has been one of Sweden’s best skateboarders for more than 20 years. We talk about the crazy years in Barcelona riding for Sweet Skateboards, how his mindset has changed over time, and why he’s taking care of his body more seriously today than ever before.
There’s a lot runners can learn from Anton. Not because he runs, but because he’s managed to stay passionate, healthy and performing at a high level for so many years.This conversation was a pure joy. We could have kept going for many more hours.
Good stuff!

Den här veckan gästas vi på Runners FM av Johan och Jeff från Aktivitus för att prata om laktatbaserad träning.
Vad är egentligen laktat? Varför har tröskelträning blivit så populärt? Och hur kan du använda laktatmätning för att träna smartare?
Vi passar också på att berätta om vårt Runners FM x Aktivitus event på Downtown Camper i Stockholm den 11 juli. Dagen börjar med ett föredrag där vi går igenom grunderna i tröskelträning, hur du kan använda laktat i din träning och vilka misstag som är vanliga. Därefter ger vi oss ut på ett gemensamt tröskelpass där vi mäter laktat live.
Hoppas vi ses på Downtown Camper den 11 juli! LINK TO EVENT: https://www.aktivitus.se/smangs2026/

Matthew Hansen (aka matthanso) has been a dream guest for Runners FM ever since we launched the podcast. From day one, we knew we wanted to have him on the show.
Last month, Matt published a brilliant blog post on his coaching platform, Infinite Threshold Coaching, titled “things i wish i knew before chasing this sport at the highest level.” After reading it, we knew we had to get him on the podcast to dive deeper into the ideas behind it.
In this honest and thoughtful conversation, Matt and Victor unpack the lessons, mistakes, and insights Matt has gathered throughout his running journey, discussing everything from training and performance to mindset and personal growth.
Good stuff!

He did it. 7th place at the Swedish Marathon Championships.
It wasn’t pretty all the way through. There were good patches, bad patches and a few moments where things got really tough. We sit down and go through the race from the gun on Lidingövägen to the final celebratory lap inside Stockholm Olympic Stadium.
Good stuff!

The last 10 days before Stockholm Marathon. How should you think and prepare during the final days before race day?
Coach Mads joins us for a chat about the final preparations before the marathon: carb loading, heat training, fueling, sleeping well, not messing with your routines and how to think around the last sessions before race day. Probably a good one to listen to if you’re running Stockholm next weekend!

We answer all of Emma’s marathon questions, from nutrition, carb loading and caffeine to pacing, race day nerves, electrolytes and gels. We’re also breaking down the Stockholm Marathon course, atmosphere, Västerbron and what first-timers should expect from the day.
A good guide for anyone running Stockholm in a couple of weeks.

This week, we sat down in the podcast studio at Downtown Camper with Swedish elite runner John Kingstedt. He’s been through a tough few years, and just a year ago running wasn’t even on the table. Last weekend, he returned to run a marathon PB in Hannover. Listen to this powerful comeback story as John opens up about depression, doubt, and the road back. Good stuff!
