  • Why his watts are so low on his Strava file from the race
  • His thoughts on lead motorbikes being 'part of the game'
  • Why he believes Norway go in to the Tokyo 2020 Olympics with a massive advantage
  • Why he'd love to give the Ironman World Championships a crack in 2020, if he were to win Olympic gold
  • He also talks very openly about guilty feelings towards training and switching off over the festive period and the mental struggles of going easy on easy days
