After the race, the brothers admitted the Norwegians were just that little bit too strong for them.
Gary O'Donovan told RTÉ Sport: "We planned to keep within touching distance of them within the first 500m. The plan then was to move through towards the kilometre mark.
"We gained a lot on the Norwegians but they were just a bit fitter and stronger today,"
"It was a tough ould race" - Gary O'Donovan
"We're feeling pretty shagged now but we'll recover in time. We gave it a good old go; the Norwegians were just too quick.
His brother Paul said: "I'm a little bit disappointed with silver but we know the Norwegians are pretty good.
"The main focus for the year now will be the World Championships.
"There's a lot to do over the next few weeks but that will provide some motivation at least."
