- Every year for 40 years, thousands of bikers make their way to Gotland to participate at what is considered the worlds largest enduro race; Gotland Grand National. Is it doable for someone with NO ENDURO experience to ride this race? Lets find out!
With the support from Husqvarna Motorcycles Scandinavia and MB Racing, I spend 1,5 months practicing for this race on a Husqvarna TE150. Håvard Nevland (@havardnevland7576 ) who won the prologue of Redbull Romaniacs in 2022 has volunteered to be my coach.
All riding in the full length of this video is done on cultivated land, so-called «innmark» with permission from land owners

I can't believe you did all this, hearing you talk about it was def something else and now seeing the footage I totally understand all your feelings. What a journey! I'm so proud of your for pushing through and I hope you keep doing these races alongside the many adventures 😍
Leonoor, the Gotland Grand National is so unlike anything else, but experiencing it and being completely happy with any result, and to keep the expectations low is one of the best ways I would think. No, I haven't been there, but it is one of those races that everyone here (in Sweden) have heard of, or seen mud-covered photos from.
When you're in mud so deep that you don't have to fiddle with the sidestand if you are thrown off (only handle bars and parts of the seat sticking up from the mud) then is the time to laugh and smile. Because what else can you do really.
Thank you, Leonoor 🥰 it was epic, and def something I'd like to continue with if time allows it! You would have loved it too 😎
Well done Runa. You should be so proud of yourself. You did amazing. Not everyone could or would do what you’ve done. 🎉
Thank you for a truly great video experience. As an older guy (72) I still try and ride whenever I get the chance. Your nerves really brought back memories. I rode a Bultaco through a National Forest in Colorado Rockies with 2 friends that were experienced MX racers. I learned so much despite not knowing enough to be afraid of what we were going to ride through. I would love to do that ride again even though it was 50+ years ago.
What an epic experience that must have been, well done! I hope this experience sticks with me just as much in 50 years, as yours has for you 😃
if only we could be young forever. i hope ill be as healthy as you able to get on a dirtbike at 72.
Hi Runa, all your videos are so well done, but this movie takes your work to a new level, congrats, I just loved it. The story line, the shots, your narration, the music, your humourous comments, the heart beat(calm 😊) . Mostly your great attitude, your laughter through the tough moments, your willingness to push your limits , the joie de vivre you bring across. Your riding skills and the comments from your trainers say it all. This was a very enjoyable hour . I have watched your channel since you started. You have really grown the quality of your content. I am very happy for you and proud for you for what you are achieving. And finally, what you did to get ready, compete and complete the race is very commendable. Bravo! 🤗
Thank you so much! How very kind of you 😊 It was all such a great experience, both learning new skills, having so much fun with it and last but definitely not lest, getting to know so many great people! 😊
This is not for women or men!
Enduro is for adventurers, motorcycle lovers, adrenaline junkies, and nature enthusiasts!
I see that you're indeed qualified for enduro! Welcome to the clan, and I believe that once you're here, you'll never leave again! Remember, the winner isn't the fastest but the one who doesn't give up and reaches the end, no matter how many times they fall!
At the end of the day, we all arrive dirty and exhausted, but with a cleansed soul!
But in the end, we are all brothers and sisters!
You made a really good documentary here. Worth a UA-cam Grammy 😊
Truly great to see your journey towards the event, and how it all comes together. You are an inspiration to many Runa ☺️
Thank you so much! 😊
Awesome introduction to tougher Enduro & MX. Kudo's to your instructors, sponsors and your sheer Tenacity! Right on Target Runa ; )
Remember
1) Momentum is your best friend
2) Confidence & commitment
3) Practice ... practice & more practice
Spoilt? Yup, lady bug lucky!
Great Video Editing & Story telling, looking forward to the rest of 2024
Thank you Ronald 😃 Very grateful for all the support I had, and still have! The biker community is fantastic.
Oh Runa, what an amazing video, entertaining and fun to watch. Fantastic job with voice over to be able to hear your thoughts. So nice to hear your laughing and every sound you make tackling different obstacles.
I had to stop watching after 45minutes to go to work but I will go back watch the rest after work 🤩
Thank you 😃 It's been long hours putting together the over 1000 clips for this, but worth it in the end. Hope you'll like the end too 😁 Have a good day at work!
@@OffSheGoesADVNow I have finished the whole video. It really is amazing from start to the end.
You will always be a winner 🥇
I used to race enduro's when I was younger. Loved them, even won a few trophys. Remember the enduro adage, "When in doubt, open the throttle !"
Oh Runa that was absolutely bad ass. You are a brave and courage's woman. I loved ever minute of it.
Thank you, John 😃
Between saying it and doing it there is a huge difference, you did it, congratulations Runa, have a good trip 👍💪✌
I’ve never done an enduro race, so it was great to see the prep work that you did and also the race. Kudos to you for pushing your boundaries and competing in that race! I think this video is my favorite, it brought tears to my eyes when you finished. I’m a woman in my 60’s riding a dual sport and I ride forest service roads, nothing like what you were doing. Well done. ❤
So funny! I was at this event photographing. I had no clue you was there as well. Small world sometimes. 😄
I do really love your videos. And I also appreciate the genereousity of your sponsors, especially Husqvarna. Greetz from Germany!
holy crap, this was so much fun to watch! aiming high and see what happens is a great way to look at life. And extra respect for that mad lad in your class on the MZ! He was definetly looking for some extra challange :)
Amazing!! Well Done ...looks like you had a blast so much fun !!
I've been following for a while, and you are improving both your film making skills, narrative and riding. Keep it up, and congratulations on the race 🥳🥇
Thank you very much! I'm glad the extra hours in both arenas are showing 😃
What a lovely young woman, it's nice to see her honesty and no nonsense way of talking. Great to see inspiration for other riders to try something new.
Awesome video! Came for the husky enduro content. Would love to see more! Great riding the day of the race!
Well done, consistency is the key and you did it !
Super, way to go. Another great video. One of the parts I enjoy most is the constant smile and upbeat positive attitude regardless of the challenges you face! Safe travels.
Runa!
Like from Brazil 🇧🇷
Just wow !!! And always with a big marvelous smile !!! Bravo !
What a brilliant mini movie this was great achievement and upgrading of your riding skills well done Runa can't wait for the next adventure
Thank you! Glad you liked it 😃
Such a motivational movie. Keep it up and stay with enduro! ❤🎉🎉🎉
Thank you. A great video that hooked me in straight away on your personal journey to the Gotland Grand National. Seriously professional and intimate talking style to camera and your refreshingly honest self reflection. The video made me smile and your infectious enthusiasm gave me a virtual kick up the ass to get out on the trail as well. So glad I found your channel via your peice with Kinga from the OnherBike episode in NZ. I am 'all in' and subscribed and ready to follow your further adventures.
Well done. Good watch. Looks like good fun.
Absolutely awesome job Runa. Very entertaining and humbling to watch. You are a very talented young lady.
Thank you 😃 It was an epic experience!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤@@OffSheGoesADV
I really enjoyed this video. It’s such high quality, and it was great to see you step up to the challenge. The race has to be the craziest ever, haha! Congrats on your achievement on the bike and putting together this awesome vid 🎉
This is superb ! I love that you included details like tyre pressures!
Jösses riktigt kul!!
Sätter varje man och kvinna på prov som är med och kör 🙂
Well done! You have accomplished something that you should be proud of! You approached the world of dirt bike riding and competition as one should and understand that confidence and skills are a progression. Your speed will increase as you gain confidence and experience.
Runa, that was a great video! You’re a lucky girl to have these doors of opportunity open for you to walk through and experience things like this that many never have the chance to do and I think you just kick ass!
Amazing and so inspiring pictures… I can easyly imagine how hard it must have been to come through this wunderfull experience … Thanks a lot to share with us all of this and make us Dream… you make it possible… many Thanks Runa 🙏

Great movie Runa 🎬and you were awesome at the GG race well done 💪🏻🙌
It was amazing to watch. Tx.
That was awesome... thankyou i really enjoyed that video 🤘
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it 😃
Fantastic video, I really love your sense of humour, perfectly fitting. Highly enjoyable to view, very well done, hope to see you more often in events like this1 Thanks!
Thank you! 😃
High five Runa! What an excellent result. And what a great opportunity to hone your skills...and make a very entertaining video. You made it look easy. Congratulations.
Excellent and well done!
The 1st thing a person learns about enduro riding is that 'dignity and grace' evaporate quickly, like super fast, and when you mess up or get it wrong the gap is filled with the laughter, banter and (most importantly) help of the friends/strangers you are riding with.
These friendly and helpful gestures are also of course normally accompanied with a quick unflattering photo or 2 to allow the friendly abuse to continue after the fact and be posted on every electronic forum available to mankind in the known universe😁😂. Thats what makes enduro great and fun.
You accomplished your goal, were surprised at how little you struggled, but you did put as much effort in with the time you had beforehand. Super stoked.
Good job and great video 👍
Hahah that is spot on! 😁 Thank you, and I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
WOW, vilken otroolig utmaning, och ett fantastiskt utförande, GRATTIS!!! ❤❤❤👍
Takk! 😃
Wow! That took guts! Amazing video, amazing perseverance, congratulations on everything you’ve done!!😊
Thank you so much! 😊
Excellent, really very well done! 👏👏👏🍾🍾🍾

Hi Runa,
Well, that was crazy, cool, exciting, scary, awesome, and badass! Way to go!

Wow wow wow it's great 👍 take care
Many many many years ago I remember hearing about someone doing GGN on a moped, 6 speed, 4 odd hp and 100 kg or so... speed limited to 45 kmh as per the EU45 regulations.
I always found that fascinating!
Awesome content, keep it up! :) And you do so well, impressive!
Thank you! There sure were all kinds of different bikes there - even a few on their big adventure bikes! 😳
That was awesome, so glad you finally got some proper (for that sport), gear. You must protect yourself…even when practicing/training. So proud of you girl 👍❤️
Thank you, Bill 😃 You got that right, the right gear can make a huge difference 😊
สวยและเก่งมากครับสุดยอด🇹🇭👍👍💋❤️🩹❤️🩹♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️💖💖💖💖💖
Congrats you should be soooo proud Runa . I am so happy for you you did a amazing feats conquered your fears wow . Your family and partner must be so proud !!!
Thank you very much, Mark! 😊
Great race, great video! I was so nervous just before the race started! :D
I sure was too! 😂
Great job. Ride on 🏍️
Sweetheart....always be safe and alert. Always jolly and lively runa.you are such a beautiful soul. Shamim 🦌 🕊
Runa you are truly a hero! I admire your perseverance and passion! You have become a real biker! Thank you for sharing your experience with us!😄👍👍👍
Haha thank you! 😁 Sharing the joy doubles it!
You are amazing!!! A real fighter. So proud of you. ❤
Thank you so much 😃
Grtz ... exciting stuff.
Grymt gjort Runa! Du är en klippa 💪🏻
😃
Runa, so proud of you! That looked insane! The TE150 looked like it performed well. What’s next for you? More beautiful Norway landscapes? Again, congrats, Runa!
Obrigado pelo vídeo Runa!
Thank you for watching! 😊
@@OffSheGoesADV que emoção saber que você leu a msg. Sou do Brasil.
You are one brave lady Runa, it takes balls to tackle something like that with little experience so bravo👍Watching the pros is just mind blowing, they go over obstacles like they aren't there and the speed is just insane! My older brother did motocross at amateur level and that was fast but the pros are a whole different level😉I learned to ride offroad and it made me such a better rider on the road, this will help you so much👍Awesome video Runa👌
Starkt jobbat ! En GGN-insats att vara stolt över, Grattis !!
Tusen takk! 😊
It is awesome to see enduro racing from your POV
Well done.
You had the opportunity of a lifetime and you took it great job! I’m trying to do this at 60 years old ride safe.😊
Thank you 😃 And that's awesome! Good luck and have fun!
i live in tofta, shame they aren't allowed to race at the original track, but im thinking about making my enduro debut this year in one of the GEC's or this year on the new GGN track
Saludos cordiales desde Huánuco Perú siempre te sigo ❤❤❤
First up, with the risk of being that one weird guy, you've got beautiful kind eyes :)
Now to the enduro riding. I'm also an enduro beginner but I ride big ADVs. When you said it's a bit frustrating watching the other riders ride the parts you have struggled on with ease. I feel you. We just have to keep practicing since practice makes perfect.
This is the first video I've seen of yours and honestly this is what UA-cam is made for. Absolutely excellent stuff
Awesome, really appreciate that 😊
I so enjoyed this video and your sense of humour kept me laughing awsome
Haha thank you, I'm glad 😁
Best episode ever!
You are freaking amazing and should be very proud! Ready for the Next adventure!?!
Haha thank you! 😁 I'm SO ready!
