Values

Rodney and Chris’ Thoughts
At Run Rocket Run, we have 4 core values:

• Integrity

• Accountability

• Standards

• Transparency 

These are the 24/7 principals we live by in our preparation, training, what we do during our work week and over the weekend.

Whether in business or relationships, your values will be challenged regularly, people won’t respond, people will be rude, people will let you down.

You determine the way you respond, you’re in control of your actions and it’s on you to uphold what you stand for. 

What are your values, and do you let others comprise them? 

“If a man stumbles, it is a good thing to help him to his feet. Every one of us needs a helping hand now and then. But if a man lies down, it is a waste of time to try to carry him; and it is a very bad thing for every one if we make men feel that the same reward will come to those who shirk their work and to those who do it” – Theodore Roosevelt. 

This was from the President’s speech, Citizen in a Republic, he gave in Paris 1910.  115yrs later, it is just as relevant today as it was at the time. It is a must read.

Quotes to Remember
“Pain heals. Chicks dig scars. Glory lasts forever.” - Shane Falco, The Replacements. 

“No matter how hard you train, Somebody will train harder. No matter how hard you run, Somebody will run harder. No matter how much you want it, Somebody will want it more. I am Somebody.” - Steve Prefontaine.

What’s Upcoming?
The next race is only 3 weeks away. The Sri Chinmoy Canberra Trail 100. It’ll be the 3rd 100km and 4th Ultra race of the year. Training is going well, building the strength back up after the Jervis Bay Ultra Trail 108km, just over 2 weeks ago.
