– It must be just as much work to run races and the mental, and it is to put on a starting number and handle expectations and adrenaline and the audience without it going beyond performance, says Gjert Ingebrigtsen. He continued to have the coaching responsibility for Narve Gilje Nordås when the sons chose to break off the collaboration with the father before this season, and answers questions about the student’s possibilities. The 23-year-old reached his first World Cup via the ranking system of 5000 meters when the demand slipped during the Bislett Games. Nordås went to the Olympics in the same way, but then went straight into the attempt. In the Olympics: Narve Gilje Nordås got to the Olympics in 5000 meters, and had Gjert Ingebrigtsen as a coach.

For little Narve from little Klepp in Rogaland, it will be a little big and a little overwhelming, says the coach. – For others that I have in my close family, it is somehow not a topic once. Self-confidence is external, ie almost overly cocky. While others have a slightly different relationship to it. Someone has to work more with it than others, he said when news spoke to him during the Diamond League vote in Stockholm. – Terribly difficult And he acknowledges that he also presents a challenge as a trainer. – It is terribly difficult for me, because I have never been in such a setting and situation. I do not know what meets them emotionally and tense, said Gjert Ingebrigtsen. He does not have accreditation for the World Cup, and this year he is following the championship from Europe. – I would probably like us to have more professional help on exactly those things there. I can not say that it is something I am very good at, because I have nothing to do with it. My job stops when they enter the stadium. It’s our thing, but I’m trying my best. Will take control himself Nordås pulls on the smile band, he is not completely sad in all that Ingebrigtsen wins. – I do not know if it is because it is too big, because I do not think of this as anything special more than a race, but maybe in the subconscious, maybe without being aware of it myself, but I do not think it is the main challenge , says the World Cup hope, which runs night to Friday. – What do you think the reason is for not getting it out in the race? – It’s a bit that I can not go completely in the basement. I’m not tired enough after a race. He is aware that the mental job is something he must do himself, and seeking external help is not relevant – No, absolutely not. This is how you take control of yourself. One must use a quarter of a run to work with it. FIRST WC: Narve Gilje Nordås has been in Eugene for a week. Photo: Stian Lysberg Solum / NTB A little overwhelming For Nordås is sad that he has a bit to go on when it comes to self-confidence in big races. – Absolutely. When you see the field around you, it can be a little overwhelming to see that those you run towards have been well down in the 12th century and you have never run faster than 13.15, so one can think that it will be difficult, but it is mostly about putting it down before the race. For Nordås feels at least better now than earlier in the season. – I have taken a small step, and hope for the effect of altitude training, but one does not know how it goes until one is in the finish after 12.5 laps. I hope I get a little more out of my body than I got out of the other races. The attempt at 5000 meters with Jakob Ingebrigtsen and Narve Gilje Nordås goes night to Friday at 03.10 Norwegian time, and will be shown on NRK1.
