In the past athletics was a very easy sport - it was amateur, the people who took part were doing so for fun and at times training was even frowned upon as seeking an unfair advantage over your opponents.
That all changed, gradually, through the 20th Century and now in the 21st century, if you want to achieve in your sport it is no longer enough just to go for the odd run, turn up on the starting line and do you best.
You need to make sure that your running training is right, you eat and drinking properly, you get stronger in the gym, you prepare mentally and you have the right support in terms of medical back up and advice.
To this end, here at Momentum Sports we have put together a project from the elite athletes in training with us. In return for the athletes dedication, talent and enthausiasm we will do what we can to provide extra resources to aid their training in addition to the normal high level of coaching we normally try to achieve. This includes video analysis of technique, nutritional help, psychological approach to athletics and many other things. We also hope to help with the costs of participation in the sport, which often runs to £1500 - 2000 for a national level athlete.
We are looking for sponsors to help us with this project. Sponsorships isn't purely a one way deal - in return we will discuss ways in which we can promote your business, including advertising on our website, which is one of the biggest running websites around, receiving over 40,000 visitors a quarter and 200,000 page impressions.
