HAS KOA SPORTS CHANGED YOUR EXPECTATIONS OF WHAT YOU CAN ACHIEVE?
Of course, my fitness has been up despite my age reach 50+
IF SOMEONE WAS TO ASK YOU… SHOULD I JOIN KOA SPORTS, WHAT WOULD YOUR ANSWER BE AND WHY?
I would recommend KOA sport to someone who start to serious about their hobby. However, we are in middle between amateur (who just run 5-6 k a day for health) and a Pro. It is because we join the race, and some of them need good preparation for better outcome and safety. By joining the professional coach team, I can focus on my training schedule and do not waste my time for other things.
Our hobby is not their hobby.
