This week on the Any Given Runday Podcast, we welcome Alanna Dunlea to the show.

Alanna completed the Rome Marathon, her third marathon, on Paddy's weekend just gone. With more and more big city marathons needing a lottery to get into them, Rome not being one of them, and with Alanna having done Cork and Dublin marathons in the previous 12 months, we thought it would be great to get her perspective on the Rome Marathon and whether it would be worth travelling out for in '25

From the expo to the iconic start at the Colosseum, the route, cobblestones, finish (and yes, the medal), and how the city of Rome embraces the marathon, this episode is perfect for those of you considering travelling for your next marathon.
