Conquer your fears and build up a plan to over come
This weekend, I conquered my second Ultra marathon this year, navigating the rugged trails, bogs, and rocky paths of the Dublin Wicklow mountains. This 50k -30 miles journey was especially significant for me, just three weeks after a race-ending ankle injury.
Determined to prove to myself that I could bounce back, I ran for a cause bigger than myself, raising funds for cancer research in honour of my late father. Losing him was a profound experience that inspired me to push forward with resilience.
Key lessons I learned from this journey that apply to life and business:
✅Learn from Mistakes, Each mistake teaches us something new. Just like rolling my ankle taught me the importance of preparation and listening to my body, failures in business bring insights that drive us forward.
✅Stay Present Running an Ultramarathon requires intense focus on the present moment, silencing internal doubts. In professional life, staying present helps manage stress and make better decisions.
✅Having clear goals and determination is fundamental to your success, whether you are running a race or leading a project.
✅Whether on a tricky trail or in business, adaptability and thoughtful action make all the difference. Challenges will arise, but taking time to reflect and adapt is essential.
I hope that my journey inspires other people to pursue their goals regardless of how difficult they may seem.
This race honours my father's memory, contributes to a cause that affects millions, and hopefully inspires others along the way. Cancer research funding can be found at
