    Simon and Gill opened the doors to the Edge Sports Shop back in 2007. It was a small shop specialising in Running, Cycling, Swimming and Triathlon products and advice. We were the first dedicated triathlon shop to open in Ireland.

    Couch to 5k (C25K)

    Couch to 5K is a running plan for absolute beginners. It was developed by a new runner, Josh Clark, who wanted to help his 50-something mum get off the couch and start running, too.

    The plan involves 3 runs a week, with a day of rest in between, and a different schedule for each of the 9 weeks.
