75 seconds of a very busy Sydney Marathon weekend. ๐ฆ๐บ๐โโ๏ธ
Shakeout runs. Briefings. Expo visits. Race-day logistics. Start lines. Finish lines. Spectator points. Race celebrations. And other activities.
What you donโt always see behind a great marathon trip is everything that happens around the race itself.
At R21fitness in Sydney, weโre building a team around the runnerโs experience, bringing together running, coaching, local knowledge and the experience that comes from working with people and groups from different parts of the world.
As a runner, coach and Sydney local originally from Spain, Iโve travelled extensively for sport myself, completing all the Abbott World Marathon Majors, alongside many other marathons, triathlons and marathon swims around the world.
Over the years, Iโve also had the opportunity to work with large groups through training sessions, corporate fitness, talks, running events and other experiences, working with people from different backgrounds and countries. All of this has taught me that the experience around an event can be just as important as the race itself.
This weekend was a little snapshot of what R21fitness can bring to the table: local knowledge, international experience and a genuine understanding of what people need when they travel for their sport.
To all the runners who trusted us with their Sydney Marathon weekend: Gracias!
Looking forward to many more Sydney Marathon weekends, supporting runners from all over the world.
