Welcome to the Episode 20 Highlights Show of Trail Running Ireland. The show is hosted by Eoin Flynn, UTMB Finish Line Race Announcer and 10 times Irish International Mountain Runner. 

For our feature interview last week, we chatted to Ireland´s World Champion on the mountains, John Lenihan.

In this special interview, dedicated to John´s old friend and fellow Kerry running legend Jerry Kiernan, John chatted about:

• His great memories training with and racing against Jerry
• Being at peace on the mountains despite not racing on them like before
• Where you´ll find him on the Kerry Way Ultra every year
• His fantastic memories of the time he conquered the World and became World Mountain Running Champion
• His racing and training before becoming World Champion
• Some of the reasons why he had such a long and successful career
