I believe ‘success’ is down to an individual's interpretation, but is something we can all achieve. Success isn’t just about PB’s and podiums, but being able to take your own personal circumstance and work towards making it better than it was previously. While this could be performance and fitness focussed towards a executing a goal event or challenge, it could also include:
Reaching and maintaining a healthy weight goal
Improving confidence and reducing anxiety
Forging new friendships with community participation
Achieving goals and recognising new ones
Fundamentally, I believe that the world of endurance sports should be open to everyone, of all abilities, no matter how much time you have to dedicate towards it.
