Mick Clohisey From Raheny to Rio

In this episode, we sit down with Mick Clohisey of Raheny Shamrock Athletic Club to dive into the story behind one of Ireland’s most dedicated distance runners. Mick takes us back to where it all began from his early days getting into running, the ups and downs of developing as an athlete, and the path that eventually led him to the marathon. We talk about the breakthrough moments that shaped his career, the grind of elite training, and what it takes to represent your country on the biggest stage. The conversation also explores Mick’s experience competing for Ireland at the 2016 Summer Olympics and lining up against the world’s best at the 2017 World Athletics Championships. He reflects on the highs, the challenges, and the lessons learned from racing at the very top level of the sport. It’s an honest and insightful look at the life of a marathon runner, the sacrifices, the setbacks, and the passion that keeps athletes chasing the next start line.
