Racers!
As Confucius (although he never ran as NBR president) once said: “Study the past if you would define the future.”
So on the eve of a new year, with a NBR horizon full of sweat, tears, and blood (and some banquets as well), take some time to reminisce on your past exploits and set new goals for the year ahead!
This is especially important in those hard corona times, which have deprived us from the orange camaraderie. As the statistics highlight, you are part of an international group of 247 elite motionists, who have at least participated to 1 competition since 2006. We know there are many more who haven’t dared yet, but 2022 is the year to really unleash the competitive beast that lives inside this fine-tuned body of yours, and wear those sexy orange colours with pride in our beloved Nordmarka!
Our history goes now even a little bit more back, with our early pioneers who started to compete on the famous “5-kamp”. I heard rumours that it might be an olympic discipline at the summer Olympic Games in Paris 2024 … You can find yours and their performances here:

Note: Kudos to Andre for all the great archive!
Have a fabulous year 2022!
