Run time Auckland Marathon!
๐โโ๏ธ Good Luck to All Auckland Marathon Runners!
Best of luck to all our Urban Athlete clients (and friends!) taking part in the Auckland Marathon events this Sunday. Enjoy the day, soak it all in โ and remember, race day isnโt the time to try anything new or fancy. Run as youโve been training (hopefully youโve been training ๐).
Whether itโs your first 5K or your tenth marathon, smart preparation and recovery make all the difference. Even minor niggles โ a tight calf, sore knee, or stiff hip โ can creep in when you least expect them, but staying ahead with the right approach keeps you moving strong. From training consistency to race-day readiness, itโs the small habits that add up and help you cross the finish line feeling confident and ready.
