2009 World Cup in Falun (50km - 54th)
2021: Had a difficult season beginning with consistent colds in the early winter that prevented training for a month. Ended up having to end the season for unclear reasons that led to overtraining and poor fitness after his first start at Oberstdorf 2021 (a race he did not finish). (svt.se, Apr 2021; Instagram, Feb 2021)
2011
At age of approximately four when his grandfather set a track around their house. (callehalfvarsson.se)
In his youth, he did many sports but realised soon, at age nine, when he won a running race for U16 boys, that his strength was in endurance sports, so continued with running and cross-country skiing. Was top elite level nationally in both 800m running and javelin throw but chose cross-country skiing when he decided to attend the ski high school in Mora. (callehalfvarsson.se, svt.se, Jan 2015)
Said at age nine in a newspaper interview that his goal is to become world champion. He became one exactly to the day nine years after that interview (Junior World Championships at Malles 2008). (callehalfvarsson.se)
Cross-country skier Sixten Jernberg (SWE), nine-time Olympic medallist (four gold), 15-time World Championship medallist (eight gold), and one of the most successful cross-country skiers of all time. (skidor.com)
