This week on the Any Given Runday podcast delves into Sean Meehan's inspiring journey from a casual marathon runner to a podium finisher in some of Ireland's top ultramarathons such as the 82k Mourne Way, the 200k Kerry Way Ultra and Winner of the Waterville Festival 3 Day Stage.
Seán highlights his initial struggles, like a challenging marathon in Rome, why he stuck with running after it, and his evolution through joining the Cherry Orchard Running Club and taking on ultra marathons after completing the Dublin Marathon and falling in love with trail running after doing Run The Line.
We also discuss the importance of training, community clubs, and camaraderie among runners in Dublin and Ireland. Additionally, Sean touches on the critical support from friends and crew during races (especially the Kerry Way Ultra) and acknowledges the financial and time commitments involved in competing in all these events.
With his recent selection for the Irish Skyrunning team and running the Snowdonia 14 Peaks, we're going to hear a lot about Seán in the near future.
