Coaches Tip:

Don't let perfect be the enemy of the good...
Talking to a friend recently they used this quote... and it struck a chord...

Some days are great , some are sh*te, some are middling.
If you are looking for perfection in everything you do, progress will be slow.
Why? Because if you are looking for perfection and don't get it, you will cancel that session because you "aren't feeling it and won't be able to push on” , you will abandon your “perfect clean eating week” because you had a biscuit or bar that will 100% NOT mess up anything on you, but you were looking for perfect, you will abandon that run session because you cant push the intervals you planned….

Whereas, if you looked for consistency (good) you would still go to that session, you would still focus on quality food most of the time and not throw in the towel completely, you would still go for a run even if it wasn't the one that was planned….

All these little things that are getting done are GETTING DONE and anything in a positive direction is better than not doing anything .

Print off a monthly calendar…. Everything you do that is something aimed towards your goal.. Put a tick on the calendar… even if its not “Perfect”

Tick the training session you got to, tick a box for “brought lunch today” , tick “got out for a run” those ticks add up, no matter how imperfect they are. They are all ticks in the right direction :)

Happy ticking!

DM CALENDAR and we will send you a pre populated one where you can note your specific goals and start chasing them!

Members Shout out!

Well done to Uc Members taking on the re energised ACHILL ROAR adventure race!
An incredible race on an incredible island!
Amy, Gerry and shane took on the Challenge course and scored big, each bringing home some silverware! Well done guys!
Aoife and Eleanor took on the sport course coming home in great times and spirits!
Dec and Noel took on a revised long course, sampled many a bog hole along the way and flew around the expanded course!
Support was strong too, both from non racing UC Members and others within the adventure racing community as always, which is great to see and why we love adventure racing!

Both sport and expert courses were redesigned with quite the climb at the start of the race, adventurers climbing the full minaun mountain to start!
The expert route added a second run along the bike route adding another challenge to an already tough route!

Well done everyone... cracking weekend of racing and craic!

Member shout out!

Massive shout to UC member Stephen Roe who took on the Kerry Way Ultra last weekend.

This grewling course never took the smile from Stephens face!

Unfortunately, so close to the finish, (just 2 checkpoints away) Stephen had to pull from the race due to injury.. To put the race in perspective and duration to those who aren't familiar, this was after 27hrs on the go so an incredibly hard decision, but we all know what the target for next year is!

Well done Stephen on an incredible effort during the race and full commitment in training to get ready for the race!

Onwards and upwards to the next one 💪
