Just over a year after skiing into the history books as Vasaloppet’s youngest-ever winner, Alvar Myhlback has a new title to add to his name.
The second day of the Blink Festival in Norway featured the highly anticipated Blink Classics on Thursday evening, where Alvar Myhlback, Lager 157 Ski Team, secured a commanding victory in the 50-kilometer classic roller ski race.
Swedish star Alvar Myhlback has made a tough decision.
For the third consecutive year, Norway’s Olympic and World Championship stars are no match for the Swedish prodigy in the prestigious sprint in Trysil.
Last year, Alvar Myhlback shone against Norwegian national team stars. This Friday, he is chasing a hat trick at the Trysil Sprint – but this time, he faces the strongest field ever.
Alvar Myhlback has competed with Madshus throughout his career. It is now confirmed that he will switch ski brands.
The Swedish 19-year-old now aims to beat the Norwegians on their home turf and become Norwegian champion. Alvar Myhlback is set to compete in the Norwegian Championships team sprint for his club Team Bygdø – if the races go ahead next week.
On Sunday, Alvar Myhlback is chasing another Vasaloppet victory, and ideally a course record. But the Swedish star also reveals a bigger long-term dream: to match Klæbo’s six gold medals out of six.
The Olympic Games await Alvar Myhlback in February. But before that, three Ski Classics race weekends are on the schedule, something he is very much looking forward to.
