Not only did Kristian Blummenfelt take out the Olympic Games gold medal, his fellow athletes all had solid performances making Norway the best performed team individually at the Olympic Games. Kristian Blummenfelt went on to win the overall World Triathlon Series title, to be the only athlete to do so in triathlon history, then smashing the Ironman Triathlon world record in Cozumel, Mexico.  Meanwhile, his Olympic teammate Gustav Eden took out his second 70.3 Ironman World Championship title.
