Conversation with my athletes: Pro Norwegian Triathlete Allan Hovda

Allan Hovda is a Pro Norwegian triathlete and three times winner of Zalaris Norseman Xtreme Triathlon. Hovda knew his mindset had to change when he won Norseman in 2018, but was disappointed with his result. We started working together soon after and in 2019, Hovda had his best season to date.

Allan is deeply passionate about the details when it comes to triathlon, from aerodynamics all the way to optimizing his mindset.

He’s driven, focused and joyful when it comes to swimming, cycling and running as fast as possible.

And that’s where I come in.

Allan and I met when he won the 2018 Norseman Xtreme Triathlon in Norway for the third time - but he felt he’d failed.

“If I am comfortable to "beat myself up" for the few things not going 100% as I wanted in Norseman, to a degree that it feels like a failure, I will never be satisfied with my own performance.”

Allan knew he needed to change his mindset and we did just that between September 2018 to September 2019.

Allan and I will be talking all things mindset and pandemic challenges to keep you excited and motivated with races being canceled/postponed.
