2025 was a year of change and laying the foundations at Run Rocket Run.

We followed our passion to put service before self and assist with enhancing the performance of others, because we are all capable of so much more.  

Gratitude.  What are you grateful for? Family, friends, health, career? Opportunities to look forward to? 

Living in Australia we have so much opportunity with the choices we can make and so much to be thankful for.

Awareness. How aware are you of yourself, others and what’s going on around you?

Having awareness enables you to think outside yourself, consider others perspective and heighten your senses of your surroundings.

Throughout 2025 Rodney has competed in several Ultra races and challenges.

From 27-29 November he embraced the hurt of the Ultra-Trail Kosciuszko by UTMB 100mile race through the Snow Mountains of NSW. 

Drive. What’s your approach to closing out 2025? Are you limping to the finishing line or are you going to continue to push yourself to meet your goals and targets?

Choice. We are constantly given several options or paths to choose from, or how to respond in order to achieve an outcome.

Grit. There will be times and experiences throughout life where you hit a roadblock, are faced with adversity, or for some unknown reason a problem out of the ordinary happens.

Growth. How do you grow and improve? Is it through experience, reading something insightful, learning something new or challenging yourself?

Community. Community connects us as humans. It provides a sense of belonging and support and is essential for our physical and mental wellness.

Commitment. Do your actions reflect what you say you’re going to do, and what you’ve committed to?

Belief. Dreams become reality through hard work and sheer determination.

Resilience isn’t something you learn from a book or a podcast, it comes through experience, going through challenging times and learning through adversity.

This Wednesday Rodney and the team at Run Rocket Run will be running continuously for 24hrs. The mission is to complete as many laps of The Track within 24hrs. It’s not flat either, each 1.56km lap consists of 78m of elevation gain and loss.

What do you do to grow and develop? Is it reading to upskill your knowledge? Is it training for something physical? Do you challenge yourself and put yourself in situations that are uncomfortable voluntarily?

What makes an effective leader? What are a leader’s characteristics and how do they help those around them? 

How do you respond to pressure? Is pressure something you accept and work through or do you avoid it? 

Preparation. 
One of the biggest reasons for someone not performing is preparation.

Consistency. Consistent action is the essential component in achieving your goals and delivering results.

Opportunity. Do you take advantage of every one / thing that comes your way? Or do you pick and choose what is worth your attention?

Perseverance. Persistence. A will to continue.

Meeting objectives and achieving goals takes work. Hard work.
