#1 - What is Any Given Runday?

Episode 1 of Any Given Runday gives you an introduction into the four of us and why we have decided to come together and run a marathon in Madrid at the end of April while documenting our journey through this podcast and social media. It is an accountability group that will help push the 4 of us to our limits. With the first episode, you will see how we all have four different, unique backgrounds as well as four different approaches to what we think will be the best way for us to run a marathon.Seán is the gym rat who reckons he can improve his marathon time but basing his training around strength-based exercises rather than 4-5 runs a week. An unconventional approach to a marathon that might just work.  Eric has also done two marathons. He is looking to complete an IronMan in the near future and bases is training on Heart Training training while also improving his cycling and open water swimming. Learn how he "goes slow to go fast" on race day. He has the fastest marathon time out of the group at 3:35 PB. Conor has done 2 marathons before but is trying to do his third along with balancing his training schedule around preseason hurling training which starts in a few short weeks. How do you balance playing halfback in hurling with the demands of running a marathon?Aaron is doing his first ever marathon and last did a 5km two years ago. How will he approach his first marathon and will he lean towards any of the advice he hears on this podcast over the next few weeks or go his own way?With the Christmas period over, the 16 Week countdown to Madrid has begun! #AnyGivenRunday
