– It has been a lot of stong out. I would say this is the first winter I have trained well. I can not remember the last time it went so well one winter, because there has always been one or the other, Line Kloster told news. She has been part of Norway’s athletics squad in championships for a number of years. But only now, at the end of May, did she have perhaps the best week on an athletics track. First she finally got under 52-blank in the 400 meter flat in Spain, and four days later she set a personal record in the 400 meter hurdles with 54.99 under a vote in Belgium. That as a 32-year-old. – Both bending under 52 and 55 is wonderful, like two different worlds, even if it is a few hundredths only, she says. – Get to eat their words It’s also good to show what one is actually good at. – Already in 2017, I got the right that I should quit. It is said that I am too old and slow, ever since. – Who said that? – It does not matter, but it is said and is annoying. But it gave a lot of motivation for 2018 and I have proven year after year that it is nonsense, so they get to eat their words afterwards, Kloster answers. INJURY-FREE: The charge has finally been almost perfect for Line Kloster before the WC and EC season 2022.

I could hardly walk. Just giving gas in the car hurt, she said. Important home-made tricks That is why she traveled to South Africa for eight weeks last winter. There she only ran on grass for the first few weeks. She felt miserable, but towards the end of her stay she noticed progress. – If I had not done it, I would have finished. At least not had any season last year and I had not had the motivation to keep up (last season), Kloster admits. THE RESCUE: On this lawn in South Africa, Kloster trained for weeks, and saved his career.

They have learned to make certain adjustments with, among other things, the surface to keep the body in check. She also has another trick that has been shown to work well, and pulls two leg warmers in wool out of the bag. The one home knit, and it gets noticed. – Someone laughs and someone thinks it’s a good idea. It is commented on a lot, a bit jokingly, but I just think it’s fun, says Kloster, and explains the use: IMPORTANT: Kloster uses leg warmers in wool when she warms up. Photo: Roy Kenneth S Jacobsen / news – I struggle to get warm enough in the muscles, especially when it is below 20 degrees, even though I use them in 30 degrees as well. Instead of increasing the time I warm up, I can now increase a little, use leg warmers and get good and warm. It has been very important. Believe in a record Both Kloster and Amalie Iuel have both met both the EC and WC requirements in the 400 meter hurdles. Another goal is a Norwegian record, or maybe preferably two. As of today, Iuel has both, with 51.64 flat and 54.72 with stern. – I would say that in terms of development it may be possible. At 400 meters hurdles, I think that record will be moved anyway, by either me or Amalie. I have just as good an opportunity at 400 meters flat, because it was not a perfect race in Spain, says the 32-year-old. Coach Vukicevic thinks my student has record chances, and I think her age can be an advantage. IN TOKYO: Line Kloster made it to the Olympics, but not further from the qualification in the 400 meter hurdles. Photo: Lise Åserud / NTB – Line has worked very hard for it for many years. She has proven that continuity in training is very important. Her exercises are complicated both rhythmically and technically and then experience is alpha and omega. You have to reach a certain age to run fast at 400 meters hurdles and there is Line no, he says. Nor does the coach care about the critics. – There is always someone who means something. I see no reason why they should not do this until they are 35 years old, and it turns out, Vukicevic points out.
