Preparing For An Ultra Challenge - An Interview With Our Athlete Lisa!

Ultra races have a habit of sneaking up on us and preparing for a Spartan Ultra with 50kms (or more like 54kms…) and 70 + obstacles are no joke. With the Spartan Ultra in Wales now only 5 months away, if you’re hoping to take part it’s time to start focusing on your training plan! So as we start preparing for the 2022 race season, we thought we’d share the training journey of one of our Ultra athletes, Lisa. Lisa reached out to us last year looking for some 1:1 coaching to prepare for the Spartan Ultra in Scotland. Read on to find out more about Lisa’s experience.

We love seeing the younger generation coming into OCR and Flynn is so dedicated to his training and focus he puts most adults to shame! Recently Flynn took on an impressive challenge and we wanted to let him share his experience with you!
