Road to Kona - Part 1 🌺

With just four weeks until our very own OHL Physio Bec lines up at the Ironman World Championships in Kona, Hawaii, she's sharing what it really takes to get there.

In Part 1 she talks training around a full-time job (hint: it's not about finding more hours, it's making the ones you have count) and why she treats recovery as seriously as her swim, bike and run sessions!

Full read in the comments 👇 Part 2 drops next week!

We loved our recent fast-talking, myth-busting DIETETICS in-service all about bone health, GLP-1 care and sports nutrition 🌏

Thanks to the epic nutrition knowledge gems from Dietitian Mat! Our Physio team has had wonderfully successful co-caring client stories with Mat since he joined the OHL team.

Would you let OHL Dietitian Mat to run a workshop for you, our OHL community? What topic would interest you? Tell us below 🏁
