| Greetings from the Italian Apls | (29.01.2012) |
Olaf has spent the last weeks skiing in sunny Seiser Alm. Tomorrow he will return to Norway after three weeks of high altitude training, cross-country skiing and rowing on the erg. He has done this every year since 1997 and says that the extreme amont of training in thin mountain air helps him stay strong through the rowing season.

| Hear The Boat Sing | (12.01.2012) |
It is not often that a group of young master rowers from a middle ranking rowing club get to race against one of the great scullers of the day. It is even less often that they beat him. However, this is what happened at Auriol Kensington Rowing Club in Hammersmith, London, on Saturday 7 January. The circumstance, as you may have already guessed, were fairly unusual.

| Team Visa Europe – London 2012 | (09.01.2012) |
Olaf Tufte has been at the top of elite rowing for over 15 years - a rare accomplishment in this demanding sport, particularly for a single sculler. His two Olympic gold medals, in 2008 and 2004, make him one of only five men with two Olympic victories in the single.

| Lazy days in Thailand | (04.10.2011) |
|
While all the hardcore Norwegian rowers are training hard and making the most of the few weeks we have left of rowing on the water before the lakes freeze, Olaf is building sandcastles and taning on the beach in Thailand. On facebook he complains about hot and humid weather, sand in his shoes, blisters on his feet and spicy food (sure I'm feeling so sorry for you, poor Olaf, specially during the 8k race on sunday I'll be thinking you) but we all know he is loving it!

| Tufte Norwegian Champion once again | (04.10.2011) |
|
Despite windy and difficult conditions Olaf showed everyone that he is still Norway's fastest singelsculler (if you can call 8.30 fast that is). However, Nils Jakob Hoff finished only a second behind and gave the tiger a real run for is money throughout the whole race.
