No wonder Jakob is struggling with Achilles issues. The body stores so much emotional baggage and pain. The fear a person needs to break through to “step” forward, especially against such a powerful part of his life-long conditioning and consciousness, can be immense and debilitating. Add to this the conviction and commitment to pursue a different life path, support community, and environment all while your life is played out in the media and message boards. SMH.
It’s completely understandable that all this compounded trauma is showing up through injury. Hopefully this gives him deeper opportunities to rest, heal and recover his body, mind, and spirit so he can enjoy being Jakob and direct his life in a meaningful and authentic way. Lots of love and compassion for him.
Coming across each other is only a problem because Jakob makes it a problem. He's petty, unprofessional, and immature.
Narve is a world championship medalist and one of the best runners in Norway, but he can't have his coach with him at the biggest meet of the year because of Jakob.
The Norwegian Federation has as one of their priorities to give Nordås the best of conditions. But it’s not easy.
The chairman of the Norwegian Athletics Federation (appointed this year, and not a part of the conflict) had as his agenda to communicate with all parts, and thus try to «fix» or at least calm the conflict. But after his contact with Gjert he has given up, and concluded that Gjert cannot be reasoned with. And that Gjert repeatedly has threatened to ruin the preparations and participation of one or more athletes (clearly Jakob) if he doesn’t get his way (accreditations and so on). I link an article about this below. Use google translate if you don’t read Norwegian.
Gjert Ingebrigtsen (59) skal ifølge friidrettspresident Runar Bålsrud (63) ha truet med «bråk» og med å ødelegge for utøvere dersom han ikke fikk akkreditering til VM i Tokyo.
Gjerts metode. A book written together with Frode Saugestad (2021). It is much, much, more than double threshold. Just for the record.
It's extremely similar to what Bakken developed. The Norwegian method has never just been double threshold. Bakken also showed where Gjert copied his training and provided correspondences between the 2 when Gjert decided to claim full credit for something he didn't make.
Your interpertation of the correspondence is similar to how marxists read Karl Marx :) No, what you state as facts are not facts. Gjert was quit open, also how he got inspiration from others like the swimming trainer Ørjan Madsen. He put a lot of elements together. It is not just the double treshold, which in my opinion is the wrong method for the right result, it is not about the lactat. But that's another discussion.
Jakob has no obligation to flee his (and his wife's) hometown in order to prove that Gjert is harassing him, or has abused him and four other siblings. Gjert has repeatedly threatened to sabotage him, so it is only reasonable that Jakob doesn't want him lurking around at meets. Also, Gjert and Narve seem more interested in creating negativity in the norwegian press than actually winning anything.

What a load of crap. Now Jakob's injuries are supposedly Gjert's fault??? Absurd.
I have a better explanation for Jakob's problems: Karma.
