PS: and about the REAL names of competidors...come on, anyone believe that his name is Hans (Christian Andersen)? and her name is Lisa?...of course that are fake names
BTW, for me, doesn't matter their names!

Great event, great run...great feeling!
You're probably right that Hans Christian Anderson is a fake name, and Lisa's reasons for withholding her last name are probably the obvious ones. However, in past years it was common for them to use and publish their full names. Last year's female winner, the American Anna, was first runner I recall a using only their first name, real or fake. 2007's female winner, Aoife (I'll leave her last name out of it), caused a bit of a stir in her home country--the extremely conservative Ireland--as she was a somewhat accomplished collegiate athlete in her own right. In 2009 the three Norwegian girls all gave their full real names when they gave a fully nude interview.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who makes it a common practice of googling girls' names when they make it into the "nude news." I can vouch for the fact that in the case of Roskilde, more often than not they were real names. I think a lot of that has to do with European--and more specifically Scandinavian--attitudes toward nudity. I don't think having appeared naked on the internet is seen as career-threatening in Norway as it is in the U.S.

Still, as you point out it looks like discretion has become the new normal in the last couple years.
