On Saturday 8 June 2024 at 16pm Steen and Peder Mondrup from Team Tvilling (Team Twin) will host a motivational talk at Reinsaríið in Tórshavn City Center (adress: Tórsgøta).

Steen and Peder are twins and will hold a talk and share their experiances and knowledge of motivation, belief in yourself and the fight against the impossible. Steen and Peder are the first twins in the world to finish an Ironman.

In their story we find bravery, will, great goals and big dreams. We find a solid belief that you can achieve what you set out to do if you have the will and as long as you se possibilities rather than obstacles.

Steen and Peder started Team Tvilling in 2013. With Team Tvilling runners and disabled athletes can meet once a week and enjoy a run together. Team Tvilling always ensures that there is a runner for each disabled athlete.

The motivational talk with Steen and Peder at Reinsaríið is free of charge. The talk will be in danish.

Steen and Peder from Team Tvilling to run Tórshavn Marathon

Steen and Peder Mondrupm, the founders of Team Tvilling (Team Twin), will participate in the Tórshavn Marathon 2024.

Steen and Peder started Team Tvilling in 2013. With Team Tvilling runners and disabled athletes can meet once a week and enjoy a run together. Team Tvilling always ensures that there is a runner for each disabled athlete.

Before and after the weekly runs the runners, the disabled athletes, relatives and friends can get to know each other. Team Tvilling facilitates these meetings and the enjoyment of common activities.

“Common to all our disabled athletes and runners is that they participate because they want to be part of a community”, says Steen Mondrup from Team Tvilling.

Participation in Tórshavn Marathon 2024

Steen and Peder will run the marathon in Tórshavn Marathon on 9 June 2024. We have asked them why they have chosen the only marathon on the Faroe Islands as their next goal.

They have explained that since they started Team Tvilling in 2013 they usually participate in big running events along with over 100 others from Team Tvilling. They usually are responsible for ensuring that everyone has a good experience. Therefore it is good for them to remember how it was back in 2013 when it was just the two of them. This is something for them to enjoy together. And they also very much look forward to the beautiful scenary characteristic of Tórshavn Marathon.

They look forward to enjoying the run, running without a clear timegoal, to enjoy themselves and to talk to other runners.

Union strike on the Faroe Islands

There is currently a Union strike on the Faroe Islands. The strike covers about 5000 workers in different sectors. You can read more on this website: https://visitfaroeislands.com/en

The organizers of Tórshavn Marathon, Ítróttarfelagið Bragdið, are monitoring the situation closely in order to asses whether changes have to be made to the marathon event.

We call upon all participants to show patience due to the special situation.

The organizers hope the conflicting parties will come to an agreement and that Tórshavn Marathon on 9 June will be amazing.

Further information will follow in the beginning of next week.

Information regarding Tórshavn Marathon and the Union strike on the Faroe Islands

Tórshavn Marathon will be held on 9 June 2024. However, because of the union strike there will be a few adjustments.

Please note:

  • No public bus transport is available to and from the airport. It is however possible with some limitations to take an airport-shuttle. Read more here: https://www.fae.fo/to-and-from-the-airport/to-and-from-the-airport. We recommend that you contact the airport-shuttle before arrival for an update.
  • The supermarkets are open, but the selections are limited. It is not possible to buy fruit and vegetables. Hotels and restaurants are open. Please contact your hotel for further information.
  • If you plan to use energy-gels on your run, you should bring them from home, as they are sold out on the Faroes.
  • Unfortunally all the finisher-medals for the ½ marathon have not arrived in the Faroes due to the strike. Therefore people residing on the Faroes may expect not to receive a finisher-medal, when they finish the run or walk. However they will receive a medal as soon as the strike is over. We will do everything possible to ensure that runners, not residing on the Faroes, and travelling to the Faroes for the run or walk the ½ marathon, receive a medal when finishing.
