Jeppe Risvig

National champion in 3000m

Jeppe Risvig has been quick on his feet since he was 10 years old. It all started with runs alongside his mother – and before he knew it, he was crossing the finish line as the winner of his very first race.

At 15, he made the decision to focus entirely on running, and since then, he has set impressive personal records: 3:41 in the 1500m and 29:30 in the 10 km.

With an unbreakable will and a desire to push his limits, Jeppe is determined to achieve his ultimate dream: qualifying for the Olympics in 2028 or 2032.

Finish the sentence

This year, I really want to…

Win more races. I got two wins in 2024, but that’s not enough. The daily grind fuels me, but let’s be real - nothing beats turning all those early mornings, sore legs, and gallons of sweat into a first-place finish. It's time to stack some trophies!

My typical Sunday looks like...

Apparently, I missed the memo on “rest days.” While most runners in Denmark do a Sunday Long Run, I go for a Sunday Double Long Run.

I relax by...

Watching Kurs mod fjerne kyster or Badehotellet with my girlfriend. Not exactly bragging material, but hey, it works.

What I wish more people knew...

That every day is a party, and you should never let anyone tell you otherwise. Life is way more fun when you’re delusionally happy about even the small things, and the party truly never ends!

A recent thought I had in the shower...

I often wonder what the world would look like if Native Americans had proper weapons and vaccines to defend themselves when Columbus "discovered" America. Just saying.

I know the best place in town if you’re looking for...

If you're ever in Aarhus, go to Kimo Pizza and order the rosemary pizza. I’ve probably eaten it more times than I should. And if you ever find yourself in Iten, Kenya, they make absolutely amazing chapatis at OASIS LILYS HOTEL.

Name the song that are always on repeat.

The best song ever made is "Give Me Everything" by Pitbull. That line, "Grab somebody sexy, tell them hey," never fails to make me smile.

Why Good Habit Co.?

I believe that if you do something, you should do it properly and with full commitment. Show up every day and dare to dream big. Good Habit Co. helps me stay consistent with smart and simple products. And that’s why being part of a Danish brand like Good Habit Co., which shares these values, is the perfect match for me. Sometimes, simple is best.

Why do you use our electrolytes in your training and daily life?

I use your electrolytes because running isn’t just about pushing hard and about recovering right. I sweat a ton, and if I don’t replace those lost fluids, I feel it. Good Habit electrolytes keep me hydrated when it matters most. No nonsense, just what works and tastes great too!
