The crowds, the rain, the determination, the exhaustion, the exhilaration and the heartbreak; it’s all here in this bumper edition of Irishman Running Abroad. Let Jarlath Regan & Sonia O’Sullivan take you around the course. The Irish Life Dublin City Marathon 2023 was a beast. Jarlath recorded it every step of the way. This unique documentary episode tracks his race journey and how things didn’t quite go to plan. There’s beautiful moments with other runners and listeners, the crowds and organisers. He then speaks to his coach Vinny Mulvey about picking up the pieces afterwards and David Gillick about breaking 3 hours in hellish conditions.
