Peder Kongshaug, Norway’s Olympic gold medalist speed skater, sent shockwaves through the skating world with an unofficial world record time during a recent training session. The 1500-meter Olympic champion, preparing for the upcoming European Championships in the Netherlands, was aiming for a relaxed 5000-meter training run. However,he found himself pushing the pace and ultimately clocked an remarkable 3:36.74 in the 3000 meters.

“He-he. It was pretty cool,” Kongshaug said with a laugh. “I had planned to go at an even pace, focusing on the 5000 meters at the EM, but I started a bit too fast. After that,I thought it was silly to give up,so I just kept going. I was shocked when I saw the time at the finish line.”

This unofficial time surpasses the official world record of 3:37.28 set by fellow Norwegian Eskil Ervik in Calgary in 2005.

“It’s remarkable,” said Bjarne Rykkje, Norway’s national team coach. “Peder became European champion in the 1500 meters around this time last year. Now he’s showing he’s back in top form ahead of the all-around European Championships. If he performs similarly on the longer distances at the EM, he’ll be tough to beat for his competitors.”

While Kongshaug’s time won’t be recognized as an official world record, it serves as a powerful statement of his current form and a promising sign for his chances at the European Championships.”this 3000 meters gave me confirmation that I’m in as good shape as I thought I was going into this,” Kongshaug said. “It gives me confidence heading into the weekend.”
