5 Miles Easy

Ep16: Kevin Quinn - running with your heart


Listen Later

Kevin's first motivator to run was from experiencing loss as a child. Over 30 years later he has run a sub 15 minute 5k and a 2hr22 marathon, but incredibly, his best performances came after undergoing major heart surgery to repair 4 holes in his heart.


Kev really does have an incredible and heartwarming comeback story. He juggles his training with being a father of 3 and his own coaching business, Real Runners which provides coaching programmes for schools as well as offering 1:1 coaching for runners of all abilities.
