Catching the sight of yourself in a mirror is one thing, catching the sight of yourself running in a video is a whole other level? Even Sonia admits to having a different view of her running form to the reality that presents itself whenever someone hits record. Can we take steps to improve the way we run or is perfection an illusion when it comes to this very personal thing. Elite running coach and physical therapist Vinny Mulvey has seen it all. He joins the episode to reflect on how thinking can impact on form and why relaxation is the key to finding your personal best running economy. Jarlath is on tour and spinning multiple plates at the moment. He finds himself in Cork for the Ballincollig Parkrun and pays a visit to John Buckley Sports - Sonia's favourite running shop in the world. As mentioned, you can find double size episodes each week and gain access to hundreds of superb ad free episodes and training tips from Sonia over on www.patreon.com/irishmanabroad - Patrons are the life blood of the show.
