Who are we?

Ingrid Kristiansen, probably the best and most well-rounded female long distance runner in history, will electronically guide you through the world of holistic endurance training,  The Scandinavian Holistic Endurance Training concept, – which includes your mind, your spirit and your body.

This holistic  concept is available and valid for all of us, whatever our sex, age or lifestyle. It is a valuable tool for people who are conscious about their health and fitness, for people who are exercising on a fun level, as well as for the elite athlete. We will begin at the foundation with the basic Philosophy.

The basic philosophy is like the prospectus in a business. It defines the basic platform and values for the activity. To achieve something in life one needs the framework and guide of planning and goal setting. We will teach you how to work with your planning and how to be focused on your goals and achievements.

It is not enough to wish for something in life and then expect that things will happen just by themselves. We will teach you how to really reach your goals through mental power or mental training: the key word here is the power of your thoughts. The Mental chapter covers methods to reach both small as well as major goals. We also teach you how to take control of difficult situations, and how you can deal with mental blocks or personal complexes.

In the Physical chapter we will teach you the simple, basic theory of physical activity or training.

In the Running chapter we talk about running and training in general, focusing on how to develop your endurance. The Marathon, and the special training this very demanding distance requires, is discussed in this last chapter.

In our pages you will find information about both physical and mental activities: training of the mind and body based on a holistic concept. The mind and the body are dependant on each other if you want to function in balance and harmony. This philosophy becomes the platform for activities on all levels, whether you are interested in a healthy lifestyle, fitness exercise or elite sport.

Our experience is based on Ingrid Kristiansen’s career as a World Class Olympian athlete in cross country skiing and long distance running. Our core message is one of health, endurance and the power of our thoughts combined with a normal family life plus good doses of spirit, enjoyment and fun.
