Behind every great training session is a coach who gets you through that final interval, keeps you going when it starts to hurt, and might even convince you that hills are actually fun.

Together with Filborna Arena, we’ve handpicked a team of coaches who share everything Runners Club stands for – the joy of running, a strong sense of community, and the drive to improve together. They come from different backgrounds and bring different experiences, but they all have one thing in common: they love running and want more people to discover just how much fun it is to run in Helsingborg.

Their mission? To inspire you, challenge you, and support you all the way to the HBGM start line. And hopefully help you get into the best shape of your life along the way.

Favorite workout

A great hill session – it’s effective, over quickly, and tough. Extended hill intervals are fun too!

Favorite part of the course

A tough one, but I’d probably say the final 500 meters from Fria Bad & Bar. Even when you’re tired, you can still enjoy all the beautiful surroundings.

Favorite place to run

In the forest on soft surfaces. It’s easier on the body and tougher than running on asphalt.

Motto

Let’s go!

Best running memory

In terms of the overall experience, probably Idre Fjällmaraton. Amazing scenery and incredibly tough.

Favorite workout

A 100-minute long run with a progressive increase in pace, finishing with 10 km at marathon pace. #lovingit

Favorite part of the course

Both before and after “Brunnshotellet” in Ramlösa Brunnspark. There are always plenty of people cheering you on and showing their support. It’s a fantastic spot that really gives you an energy boost.

Favorite place to run

Together with running friends.

Motto

Let it hurt a little.

Best running memory

Passing the 32 km mark and realizing that I only needed to run the final 10 km in 47 minutes to go sub-3. It gave me an incredible sense of calm (until the pain kicked in at 38 km).

Favorite workout

A long run in good company along the beautiful coasts or ridges of Skåne.

Favorite part of the course

Do I really have to choose…?

Favorite place to run

On trails, along the coast, through forests and in the mountains. Long and slow.

Motto

“Have fun, and the motivation and results will follow.”

Best running memory

Full Moon Race, my first ultra (together with Björn Svensson), running along the beach at night under the light of the full moon – an amazing feeling of accomplishment. Or running in the Alps, simply because it’s so incredibly beautiful.

Favorite workout

A loooong trail run in amazing nature.

Favorite part of the course

Passing the fields after Sofiero, knowing that all that’s left is the downhill stretch of Tinkarpsbacken and then Strandpromenaden. On top of that, you get to enjoy the amazing view across the Öresund towards Denmark.

Favorite place to run

With my wife or my sons, because sharing what I love most with the people I love most is simply the best.

Motto

Be the change you want to see in the world.

Best running memory

BAMM 50, 2023 – a two-day mountain orienteering race in pairs with my oldest son. Carrying backpacks with our tent, stove and all our food, we spent just over 15 hours running through spectacular mountain terrain between Riksgränsen and Narvik. It doesn’t get much better than that!

Favorite workout

Intervals of all kinds.

Favorite part of the course

There are many, but if I have to choose, I’d say the final 4 km. There’s so much emotion in the air from all the runners, and it has by far the most beautiful finish line I know!

Favorite place to run

Together with others. Great conversations, runners to chase or being chased myself.

Motto

“Damn, this is going to be fun!”

Best running memory

Without a doubt, all the years I’ve had the honor of running as a pacer at Helsingborg Marathon. Being part of the experience, encouraging and helping other runners reach their goals is an indescribable feeling. Twice as rewarding, really!

Favorite workout

4 x (4x400m) at a high pace with progressively shorter recovery periods.

Favorite part of the course

Always the final stretch along Strandpromenaden, but I’d now also add the sections from Maria Park through Pålsjö Forest towards Thalassa. It’s absolutely beautiful through Pålsjö Forest, with a nice gentle downhill.

Favorite place to run

In the forest with a map in hand.

Motto

Run fast when people are watching.

Best running memory

A long run with my wife along the Skåneleden Trail, from Utvälinge via Kullaberg to Helsingborg.
