The next episode of the podcast is live and available for down load on all platforms... Today I sat down in the studio with Padhraic Maguire to talk about his recent completion of the Marathon des Sables, one of the toughest endurance races on the planet. In this episode, Padhraic takes us inside the journey that led him to the Sahara from the months of preparation and training, to the logistical challenges of taking on a multi-day race across the desert, carrying everything you need on your back. We dive into the realities of preparing for such an extreme event: balancing training with everyday life, dealing with setbacks, and building the physical and mental resilience required to keep moving when conditions are at their toughest. Padhraic also shares what it’s actually like out on the course, the heat, the terrain, the camaraderie among runners and the moments that test your limits. It’s a fascinating conversation about dedication, resilience and the power of committing to something that once seemed impossible. If you’re interested in endurance sport, pushing personal boundaries, or hearing the story behind an incredible achievement, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.   The Skool link: https://www.skool.com/runsensible-4557/about?ref=9a9178f6565e4023b74c066c50480acf
