More than 40,000 runners took to the streets of London on Sunday April 23rd, 2023, to run 26.2 miles. Raising millions for charities across the U.K. This year, for the very first time, I was one of them. Today's episode brings you all the sights and sounds from this tremendous event. From the pre-race jitters to the fortuitous meetings, the cheers crowds and the glorious final sprint to the finish, this episode has it all. There's even a special appearance from Irish athletics legend Catherina McKiernan (Patreon extended episode). Coach Vinny Mulvey reviews the race and Sonia looks back on two extraordinary elite events. 

I might be tired right now but I am also on tour. I’ll be doing my latest standup show in Liverpool, Newcastle, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Armagh, Galway, Cork, Kilkenny, Naas, Birmingham, London and Tralee to why not grab a ticket while you can. All the other dates have fully sold out!

We have just announced a second night in Olympia Theatre in Dublin for my brand new show in 2024 - all ticket links can be found here. https://linktr.ee/IrishmanAbroad
