I've decided to do an 85km Ultramarathon, and in this pod I share 3 things I've learned since I made the decision to commit to it.

I'm doing the run in aid of the Mayo Roscommon Hospice Foundation. This is a brilliant charity who provide brilliant palliative care free of charge, but they need donations to do what they do. You can donate here, and anything you can give is massively appreciated, thank you. https://www.idonate.ie/wl/fundraiser/BrianMoylett

This was an unreal chat. From Jack having me in stitches laughing, to chatting about mental health challenges, and just being intrigued throughout. Have a listen, you’ll enjoy it.

Jack played for Irish 20s, Ulster, Highlanders, Ospreys and Toyota Shuttles. 

His mental health took a huge toll on him recently and he decided to walk away and retire from rugby.

We chat about his journey in the game that took him across the world to playing with All Blacks Aaron Smith and Shannon Frizzell. He shares some mad stories like the time he was detained by boarder security guards, essentially becoming an invalid for a period of time, and having to pull off the motorway to rush himself to A&E.

Cheers to Jack for a great chat, was a pleasure!
