Focus.On.The.Finish.LineTM Specialized services for the athlete

Focus.On.The.Finish.LineTM will take care of all the things you’re worried about, and more importantly – even the things you haven’t thought to worry about yet. Taking the stress out of the culmination of months of investment in time, training and money.

Focus.On.The.Finish.LineTM is the creation of Kelly Roberts and Paul Kaye, who have both travelled and raced extensively, and between them worked in the luxury hospitality, events, media and marketing environments. As a result they have immersed themselves into creating an elevated experience for the participating athlete – weekend warrior to professional – and their significant others.

Kelly has spent the past 10 years catering to the most sophisticated and demanding needs of guests onboard award winning, luxury charted yachts in the Mediterranean and Caribbean and invests her passion, pride and attention to detail into ensuring a successful and memorable event.

Paul has spent the past 20 years in the media, marketing and events environment and has travelled extensively around the world. He has raced single day and stage races both locally and abroad and has also travelled to and worked on some of the biggest participation endurance sports events in the world. He brings an understanding of the challenges facing athletes and also a wealth of contacts and knowledge.

If you haven’t confirmed flights and accommodation, Focus.On.The.Finish.LineTM can take that stress away instantly. If you have got your flights and booked your accommodation; there are many other logistics to manage. How is your bike getting to the race safely? How are you getting from the airport to your accommodation and after the race how are you getting back to the airport?

More than 3,000 people have entered the Spec-savers Ironman 70.3 in East London, on average, each participant brings 2 other people along – that equates to more than 9,000 people in East London over that period – yet, there are only a handful of good restaurants within walking distance – are you sure you’re going to secure a table for lunch, for dinner?

Travelling with a bike is always a challenge. No one treats your bike with the love, care and respect that you do. The aircraft servicing East London are mostly Regional Jets and have tiny cargo holds. Should the flight be full, which they are already, there is every chance that your bike won’t be on the same plane as you – and even if it is – are you confident it is being handled correctly?

You want to share the occasion with the most important people in your life – they make the trip with you. But the day before you’re nervous, you’re focussed on your race – you need to be a little selfish and focus purely on yourself. What do they do?

You’re carrying a slight niggle and need a physio to strap you, but you don’t know of anyone in East London to call.

Focus.On.The.Finish.LineTM has the answers and will take care of all the details.
