Running your fastest 5km isn’t all about running more. As Sonia explains in today’s episode, it has just as much to do with what you do when you’re not running. Without proper recovery methods nobody gets faster. Jarlath quizzes the GOAT on what works best, drops into a Vinny Mulvey 5km Camp to get his opinion and asks Cathal Dennehy what a recovery run looked like when he visited Kipchoge’s home in Kenya. We also look back at the European championships in Rome and ahead to the Paris Olympics. Hear the full conversation and get Sonia’s weekly training plans over on Patreon. Email the show?

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
