Not about seconds,
about moments

Frank is from Tromsø but has lived in Lofoten for more than ten years, part of the success story of the event company XXLofoten. With a background from the military and from building XXLofoten, he went full speed into the next adventure.

There are so many exciting, talented and highly skilled companies in Lofoten. We have a lot of business in the fish industry, of course, but the travel industry keeps developing too. Our hotels and restaurants are pushing high quality. There are graphic designers, film and photo services at a very high level, and researchers such as SALT who have made a living out of sharing knowledge. I can go on and on, and there is so much more ahead of us.

Kristian grew up in Hamar, moved to Lofoten in 2011 and has never regretted it. His background is travel and sport, and his spare time goes to pretty much anything outdoors. Before he was hired in August 2017 he had already finished Lofoten Ultra-Trail 24 km and 50 miles, Lofoten Triathlon Extreme and Lofoten Skimo 4000.

The Arctic Triple is a huge window of opportunity for Lofoten. The project has an environmental vision and a strong focus on taking care of this nature, and we want to be a good example and take responsibility. Working with the races is real work experience for young people too. Maybe we have some up and coming logistics officers here. Or photographers.

Nikolai first turned up as a volunteer in 2016 and has been on the crew at almost every race since, with the Ultra-Trail and the Triathlon under his belt as an athlete as well. In 2022 he was hired to take charge of race tech.

That covers timing, live tracking, registration and this website. He also runs the race OPS and coordinates it through every race, the room where the radio traffic, the tracking screens and the decisions all meet.
