Show Notes
Welcome to the highlights show of episode 22 of Trail Running Ireland. The show is hosted by Eoin Flynn, UTMB Finish Line Race Announcer and 10 times Irish International Mountain Runner.
We had a really great interview last week with Preventative Cardiologist Paddy Barrett who talked to us about:
- The massive health benefits of running and about the need to share this message with as many people as possible.
- How his recent Covid vaccine affected his training
- The health impact of easy running vs intense racing and training
- A deep dive into zone 2 training
- His thoughts on getting sports back up and running
We also have news on the recent Transgrancanaria which took place with 1,500 runners
