Mikael Flygind Larsen
Mikael Flygind Larsen (born September 18, 1982 ) is a Norwegian speed skater .
Mikael Flygind Larsen made his debut in a team competition in Hamar in November 2004 in the Speed Skating World Cup. The runner, who specializes in sprints and medium-distance races up to 1500 meters, achieved his best World Cup result on an individual distance at the 2006 World Cup finals in Heerenveen with a sixth place over 1000 meters. He only did better in December 2005 at the pre-Olympic team competition in Turin as third together with Håvard Bøkko and Eskil Ervik . At the Olympic Games he reached fourth place with the Norwegian team and thus just missed a medal. However, it was only used in the preliminary stages. In the individual courses he competed over 1500 (14th) and 1000 meters (8th). In 2005 he was the Norwegian runner-up in the sprint all-around.
