Every Athlete, Every Journey Canberra Running Coach, January 3, 2025January 3, 2025 FAST Running’s Commitment to Excellence At FAST Running, we believe every athlete deserves unwavering support, no matter their current phase of training or status within the squad. Whether you’re an international competitor or an athlete rebuilding strength, our commitment to Running Excellence ensures you are seen, valued, and assisted on your journey. Our Head Performance Coach, Steve Dodt, exemplifies this ethos by creating tailored sessions that address each athlete’s unique needs. From a two-hour cross-country trail ride with Mathias to build endurance, to a focused 30-minute pool running session with Daniel to promote low-impact recovery, to power-driven strength sessions with Lewin, Steve ensures every member has the tools and opportunities to thrive. This isn’t just about running laps—it’s about holistic development. Whether it’s refining biomechanics, improving mental resilience, or targeting specific performance goals, we work with every athlete to explore alternate areas of growth, both on and off the track. With resources like the FAST Recovery Centre and collaborations with partners like Clinic 88, our athletes have access to comprehensive support for their continued progress. At FAST Running, equality and encouragement are at the heart of everything we do. Our squad isn’t just a group of individuals; it’s a community where every member’s journey matters. Together, we embody the spirit of Running Excellence, striving for greatness while lifting each other every step—or stride—of the way. #RunningExcellence #AthleteSupport #FASTCommunity Community News AdultsAthletics CoachCanberraMature TeensRecoveryRunning TrainingWellbeingYoung Adults
