Mats olofsson biography of christopher

  • Biography.
  • Matts, the son of Olof Matts' at Rämen, was born 16 March 1710.
  • They had 8 children: Christina, Christopher and 6 other children.
  • Firstly I have to confess, I am not really a triathlete.  I did a dozen triathlons in my early 20's before I worked out that I was an awful swimmer, a modest rider but a pretty fast runner.  I also enjoyed running more than riding, and lots more than swimming.  So I've spent the last two decades as a runner and haven't done a triathlon in 18 years, but having recently talked a bunch of mates into doing an Ironman I thought the triple-tri would be a good first comeback triathlon.

    I also figured as a young fella, that one is fast when young, and then you get slower as you age.  So as a life-long strategy I chose to run fast while I was young, and leave long-distance races, such as marathons and Ironman until I was an old codger.  My thinking was that this would allow me fresh challenges, without being reminded that I am not as fast or strong as I once was.  Being 41, I was no longer able to pretend that I was in my youth, so here I am building towards Ironman WA in December 2013.

    Mats Olsson was born in 1725 in Västerfors, Gagnef, Dalarna, Sweden. He was the son of Olof Matsson and Anna Matsdotter.

    Research notes

    He is not listed with his parents and siblings in the next household examination book. Diseased? Or married and moved? Usually, the oldest son would inherit his father, so more likely he passed away. Received communion in 1741, not listed as dead.
