Today's guest Norman Mawhinney, has had an incredible year in 2023 becoming not only British, Irish and World marathon champion but also Irish champion at every distance from 5k to marathon.

We talk about his journey from starting out running as a challenge from a friend at the age of 51 to struggling and then breaking through in the marathon to excelling in 7 marathons in 2023.

We explore Norman's training, nutrition and mindset going into and during races and also talk about how he has inspired others to get involved in running through parkrun, couch to 5k programs and at Run Hub in Newtownards.
