Ep 18 Highlights Show - Christmas Competition and Aoife Mundow Interview

Happy Christmas everyone and welcome to the highlights show of episode 18 of Trail Running Ireland. The show is hosted by Eoin Flynn, UTMB Finish Line Race Announcer and 10 times Irish International Mountain Runner.

First up it´s Christmas Competition time and thanks to IMRA, we have a free entry to the Maurice Mullins Race in 2021. You can choose the half or the full ultra distance and to win, tune in to the show intro for the competition question!

A big thank you to our show sponsor, COROS, who have just won a whole rake of new awards for their watch range including a “Best GPS Watch” in Runners World Dec/Jan 2021 edition for their PACE 2 watch.

Make sure to check out their new UK and Ireland website: https://uk.coros.com/ for more info as well as details of their new partnership with JoggingBuddy and mental health charity Sport in Mind which is aimed at encouraging more people to get active, make friends and to socialize through running.

For our feature interview in episode 18, we talked with a runner who has exploded onto the trail and ultra running world in the last 2 years, Aoife Mundow.

Aoife has racked up an incredible honours list in Trail and Ultra Races in Ireland with wins in prestigious races such as The Kerry Way Ultra, EcoTrail Wicklow, Connemara 100 and The Wicklow Way. She broke a 24hr National Record early this year and came 5th overall in the Kerry Way Ultra as well of course as dominating the women’s race.

Aoife chats to us about:

· How she feels after losing the chance to compete in many races in 2020 and her thoughts on how the year has gone

· Her plans for 2021 and beyond and how her training has changed to help prepared for future goals

· Her philosophy and approach to training and racing

· Her thoughts on the Ultra and Trail Running scene in Ireland

It´s a great story so make sure to share it with friends and family members who might be starting off on their running journey.

Get your running gear on, let´s go and Happy Christmas!!
