Let's make this birthday one to remember.

56 years old (Born on October 29, 1968)

Happy Birthday, Johann Olav Koss! You're skating into another year faster than most of us can lace up our skates. With four Olympic gold medals under your belt—three from Lillehammer in 1994 alone—you've proven that ice isn't just for drinks; it's also the perfect stage to glide gracefully past competitors and straight into history.

Even though time keeps racing forward (almost as fast as you did on those legendary tracks), your legacy remains timeless. May this birthday bring laughter, joy, and perhaps a cake big enough to hold all those medals—or at least one that's easier to slice through than solid ice!
