Norwegian runner Ida Amelie Robsahm has died after falling “several dozen meters” during a treacherous hike on Saturday, September 19. She was 30.
Robsahm was hiking with a group near the summit of Romsdalseggen, one of Norway’s most difficult hikes, according to the Norwegian Broadcasting Company (NRK). After police were called, Robsahm’s body was recovered by a rescue helicopter, but attempts to save her life were unsuccessful.
“In the midst of the deep sorrow over the loss of Ida, we would like to extend a warm thank you to the running community,” Robsahm’s family said in a statement to NRK. “Ida was a big part of the community, and all the care and consideration in this cruel situation means a lot.”
Robsahm’s coach, Sindre Buraas, received the news of her death while doing commentary on NRK for the World Street Running Championships.

“It came as a shock,” he told the outlet. “You can’t deal with it right away. She was in a place in a terrain and an environment where she had been so much, so comfortable. She was torn away from us and from her life. It leaves deep traces. It is bottomlessly sad in every way.”
In addition to being “a fantastic athlete,” Buraas called the late Robsahm “a person with a big heart for the people around her.”
Robsahm placed second at the Marathon du Mont-Blanc in June 2025, before finishing fourth at the World Mountain and Trail Running Championships in September later that year.

Her warmth and kindhearted nature touched many of us at ASICS and the running community. Our hearts are with Ida’s family, friends, teammates and all who knew and loved her. She will be missed dearly.”
