Two-time World Champion Jakob Ingebrigtsen is a well-known Norwegian middle and long-distance runner. He has a world men’s overall ranking of #3. Two of his older brothers, Henrik Ingebrigtsen and Filip Ingebrigtsen are also middle-distance runners who compete internationally in Track and Field. 

The Olympic gold medalist, with 2x World Championships silver medals and 3x Diamond League Finals wins, is no stranger to excellence. But such excellence requires a rigorous training schedule, hardcore discipline, and attention to minute details of performance. For this, it is necessary to use savvy accessories, as Jakob does.

So what accessories does Jakob Ingebrigtsen use?

Jakob Ingebrigtsen has kicked off an exclusive partnership with COROS. With this collaboration, the 23-year-old looks forward to inspecting all aspects of his performances to prepare for major events in the present and coming years. The following are the accessories he uses to enhance his performance: the COROS PACE 3 Watch, COROS Heart Rate Monitor, and COROS Training Hub.

The COROS PACE 3 Watch has advanced GPS capabilities, providing precise location tracking and route mapping for outdoor workouts. It comes with enhanced battery life, suitable for extended training sessions and competitive races. It also offers customizable training modes tailored to different types of workouts and goals. The watch displays real-time performance data, such as pace, distance, and cadence during training, and seamlessly syncs with the Training Hub for in-depth analysis and tracking of the workout.

The COROS Heart Rate Monitor has accurate heart rate tracking, measuring heart rate with high precision to monitor intensity and recovery. It provides real-time data synchronization, connecting directly with the COROS PACE 3 to provide live updates during workouts. It fits comfortably for long training sessions, designed for comfort and stability even during intense exercise. The monitor is compatible with the COROS PACE 3 and works in tandem with the watch for comprehensive insights during training.

The COROS Training Hub provides comprehensive data analysis, aggregating and analyzing data from the PACE 3 and heart rate monitor to provide detailed performance insights. It tracks a range of metrics, including pace, heart rate, cadence, and more. The Training Hub offers customizable training plans, allowing athletes to create and adjust plans based on performance data and goals. Additionally, it provides actionable insights for strategic improvements, helping identify areas for improvement and optimize training strategies.

Before Jakob joined hands with COROS, he was quite hesitant to get into detailed data work as “it can sometimes be a hassle. I am very aware of what I spend my energy on, so if I feel like I spend too much energy on something, without getting a lot in return, I will stop doing it.” However, after switching to COROS, Jakob shared with COROS.com “COROS products make it easier for me to collect data, and the app gives me easy access to analyze it.” 

Jakob Ingebrigtsen’s partnership with COROS elevates his training precision, ensuring he remains at the pinnacle of middle-distance running excellence.
