Odin Strømberg moved from Norway to Brooklyn in 2023 with a full-time job, a child, and no sports background. That fall, he ran his first marathon in 4:24.
Now? He’s a 2:42 marathoner.
In this episode, we talk about improving fast as an adult beginner, training seriously while balancing work and family, and the mindset shift from simply finishing to truly competing.
Odin is now chasing an even bigger goal: running all the U.S. major marathons in 2026, alongside a fundraiser you can support.
