Shaun StewartMulti-Sport Adventure Athlete
Shaun is a multi-sport athlete competing in adventure and ultra trail races throughout Ireland and Internationally. Based in Donegal, Shaun was crowned Irish national adventure race champion in 2018 and joined the UGLOW Sport team last year.
A busy 2020 calendar should have seen Shaun making a return to Ireland’s leading multi-sport event “The Race” and a first outing at the UTMB but these will have to wait until 2021. Next up for Shaun is the Seven Sisters Skyline, Ecotrail Wicklow 80km and the Garmin Mourne Skyline.
Top Race Finishes:

Top Training Tips:
- 1. Be race specific with your training sessions, replicate race scenarios and nutrition in the months building up to your A-race.
- 2. Balance – Training and racing hard needs to be balanced with recovery, nutrition, work and family time. Your best results will come when the perfect balance is reached, therefore don’t try to fit your life into a training schedule, build a training schedule that fits your life.
- 3. You get out what you put in but most of all, enjoy what you do.
