8 Weeks of Norwegian Singles: The Results Blew My Mind!

After 8 weeks on the Norwegian Singles Approach, I put my fitness to the test with back-to-back 12-minute and 3-minute all-out efforts. The progress has been huge — moving from a predicted 3:12 marathon to a potential 2:55 in just two months.

In this video, I’ll walk you through the tests (including POV and bike follow shots), share the numbers, and break down what this means for my upcoming marathon. If you’re curious about endurance training, performance breakthroughs, or the Norwegian method, this is one you’ll want to see.

• 12-MINUTE TEST: 3:33/km (5:43/mi)
