Rebecca came to me with a nasty proxomal hamstring tendinopathy that just wouldn't clear up & despite a very detailed running plan and strength program. The very real fear there was not being able to travel and compete in this race. The why behind what motivates a client is so important, as you can see below
Rebecca : "Once I knew I'd be ready for the start line of London Marathon I decided to fundraise for the Irish Cancer Society, in memory of my parents and my uncle, and in support of friends and family who are cancer survivors, or currently undergoing treatment. I was so touched by the messages I received with personal stories of those who are living life to the full after successful treatment, also messages from people who told me that they were newly diagnosed awaiting treatment, and other messages sharing memories and stories of those they'd lost. Carrying those messages and memories made the marathon extremely emotional, but they are also what carried me through the tougher miles"
"I went to Martin with a hamstring injury that wouldn't clear up. With London Marathon coming up, he assessed my injury, gave me a tailored rehab plan, and checked in regularly to see how it was going. As I progressed through the rehab, he tweaked the plan to get me running again, building my miles and giving me the best chance to get enough training in to complete the marathon. I was delighted to get to the start line. I'd highly recommend Martin as a physio"
