One of Killarney’s newest businesses is offering Ring of Kerry Cycle participants a great deal to help prepare them for the event.

Reboot Recovery is the only dedicated recovery suite in town based in Woodlands Industrial Estate off the Killarney bypass. The facility is purpose built for people looking to get the best out of their body, reduce the risk of injury and perform to their maximum potential.

With the Ring of Kerry Cycle only a few weeks away, Reboot Recovery is offering advice and a 20% discount for all cyclists participating to help them stay fit and healthy in the lead up to the event.

ADVICE

“As the event gets closer participants will be hitting the road at every opportunity, trying to get as many miles in to the legs as they can," Chris Davies from Reboot said.

"It is important that people listen to their body during this training period and make sure they are giving their body adequate time to recover so that they stay injury free. Depending on your level of fitness and the training you have already banked, the number of rest days a person will need can vary, but a general rule of thumb is to allow your body 48 hours to recover.

“In the 24 to 48 hours after a tough workout you will feel the effects of DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness). This comes from tiny, microscopic tears in your muscle fibres. Your body responds to this damage by increasing inflammation and this restricts your ability to get back out and train.

"Getting in to Reboot Recovery the day after a tough session can help reduce the effects of DOMS and will allow you to recover and get back out on that bike faster. A few recovery sessions with Reboot, coupled with good sleep, diet and hydration will ensure you are adequately recovering in the lead up to the cycle.

​​​​​​​OFFER 

"We would like to offer all Ring of Kerry participants 20% off our full recovery session in the lead up to the cycle, meaning you will only pay €20 instead of €25.

"The one hour recovery session starts with five minutes in our Mobility and Activation Area using our Massage Guns and Electrical Rollers and Massage Balls, followed by 3 x 10 minutes in our market leading CET CryoSpa, Infrared Sauna and Hot Tub. After that clients chill out for 25 minutes in our NormaTec Compression Boots which give your legs a deep tissue massage."

Get your scrap together

Following the success of the first ever Killarney Lions Club scrap metal collection in 2025, the Club will again run the event this year in partnership with KWD Recycling on March 28, at Killarney Racecourse.

Similar to 2025, money raised through recycling the metal will go towards improving facilities for families attending the children’s cancer unit in Cork University Hospital, as part of an overall fundraising drive being coordinated by Lions Clubs all over Munster.

The Club is asking people to bring non-ferrous scrap metals such as aluminium, copper, brass, zinc and stainless steel (no white goods such as fridges/cookers washing machines). Volunteers will be on hand from 9am until 4pm to take donations of scrap and work with KWD Recycling to remove it for processing.

“Although Lions Clubs in Munster have already raised some funds for CUH, more is still needed, so we’re delighted that KWD Recycling is working with us again to support this very worthwhile cause”, said Jason Higgins, President of Killarney Lions Club. “We’re asking anyone who has scrap metal at home, at work or on the farm now or in the next few weeks to please bring it to the Racecourse on the day because everything we collect will make a difference.”

Tadhg Healy, Sales Manager at KWD Recycling added that “We will recycle any high quality scrap metal that we collect – it can be quite valuable and of course it’s better for the environment if it’s recycled instead of being dumped. On top of that, the main thing with this collection is to help families of children with cancer, so hopefully we’ll get a good response from everyone and raise as much money as possible through this event”.
