Bjørk Herup Olsen from Bragdið took part in a Nordic international match in Bergen over the weekend. The competition, called the Nordic Match U20, is an athletics competition for young athletes. Bjørk, who represented the Danish youth national team, was selected to run the 3,000 m.

The race went very well for Bjørk, who crossed the line in 10:19.63, a new Faroese record. The old record of 10:24.28 was one she had set herself earlier this summer.

Bjørk’s next big challenge will be the Danish Youth Championships on 13 and 14 September.
