I'm a Swedish Classic


Dalmas

Recommended Posts

I'm pretty proud of what we've done so I'll post in any and all forums I'm active. :D

What is a Swedish Classic? To gain the diploma you have to in a 12 month period finish the folowing four events. You may start the circle where you want but then to order is set.

90 Km Cross-country ski (http://www.vasaloppet.se)

300 km Cycling - (http://www.vaetternrundan.se )

3 km Swimming - (http://www.vansbrosimningen.com)

30 km Cross-country running (http://www.lidingoloppet.se)

I had planned to re-start on my training for the WS today but I can't draw the gun in under 5 seconds after 10 hours of cross-country skiing.

Why do this? if I had learned to shut up it would never have happened. I happened to tell my danish girlfriend that I could do it.. She thought it was a great idea and enrolled us .. She also completed hers on Sunday. I must say I'm proud of what we've done.

Ummmm, seems like a lot of time that could have been used to dry fire! :wacko:

All joking aside, GREAT accomplishment!!! I have spent a bunch of time in Sweden, you guys are UNIQUE! And the Danish women, all I can say is YES PLEEZ!

Congratulations Mats to You and Your "significant other"!!

(I met Mats and his girlfriend at the Swedish IPSC Nationals -04) and she's of a quite different statue than our Mr Dalmas, who's quite tall and muscular, so the achivement on her behalf is GREAT! Absolutely great.

Cross-country skiing is nothing to laugh about when the distance is 90 km, bicycling 300 km on public roads around a great lake in the south swedish "high land" with altitude variations of staggering proportions and then to top it all off, 3 km swimming in streaming water in a wet suit to protect you from the chilly water, man, that's an amazing achivement! The last event, 30 km running event, that's a stroll in the park in comparison.... :D

Congratulations Dalmas, that is quite an accomplishment. I think I would dump that girlfriend though. No telling what she will get you into next time! :D

:D She is now well aware of that in the future she might bike, run, swim, ski as much as she wants, I'll be on the range!

I can see a demand for pictures, I guess the women of this part of the world have a certain rep to live up to.. Well I'll post a pic during the weekend and u can be the judges..

Ask her before you do so, otherwise you could get into some trouble ;)

BTW Mats, nice accomplishment! :blink:
