The SV NFM Team 2022

The SV NFM Team 2022 is aiming to train and send fit SVs to take on the challenge of the Norwegian Foot March (NFM). Started in 1915 by the Norwegian Military as a test of endurance, it is a 30km march conducted with an 11kg load. It is considered one of the toughest march challenge out there as participants need to complete the march in under 4.5 hours (based on age).
