    In this episode I talk through how I only made it to 104km of the 200km in The Kerry Way Ultra , what broke down, and what I’m taking from that into the next block of training.
    I also walk you through a hunting trip I’ve got lined up for next weekend: the rifle and scope I’m running, how I plan to document the whole thing for social media as best I can and the little details that can make or break a stalk.
    I also touch on why I’ve gone back to bodybuilding, and how I’m spending the next six months giving that a full send in McGarry Barbell.

    In today’s episode, I reflect on my growing fame and recognizability—and compare it to the attention received by people with three ears and attractive women. I also make a quick Tesco stop to stock up for the Kerry Way Ultra, which takes place in just two days, and reveal who’s joining me as my next podcast guest.

    In this episode, I reflect on the enthusiastic response to my recent physical challenge—running the Border of Meath—and the curious silence around the social-media content I create alongside it. I also share my plans, nerves, and expectations ahead of the Kerry Way Ultra, which is only a few days away.

    In today’s episode, I’m talking about the benefits of not putting things on the long finger and why taking action now can make such a difference. I also share a bit about my upcoming race next week, the Kerry Way Ultra, and explain how Des will be joining me to capture the social-media side of the run. Finally, I use the analogy of building a house to explore what it means to get your life in order—especially when it comes to laying the foundations and mapping out the future you want.

    In this episode, I revisit a note I wrote on my phone about a year ago and unpack what’s changed since.


    I explore the difference between fully committing to something versus half‑arsing it, and what I call being a “high achiever” versus a “wide achiever.” I share some honest thoughts about regret, mortality, and the reality that while there’s still plenty I haven’t done yet, I’m genuinely happy with the direction and pace of my progress.


    I talk about the power of starting new projects, “hoovering up the low‑hanging fruit,” and why having clear metrics to judge your progress and your program can make all the difference.

    The Psychological Significance of a New Haircut

    Can a new haircut be more than just a change in appearance? Hair is closely tied to identity and self-expression, so changing it can become a small but meaningful act of autonomy—one that reflects an internal shift or a desire to be seen differently. �

    In this episode, I explore how bravery works like a muscle: when we exercise it through small acts of courage, it grows stronger; when we continually avoid what frightens us, it can begin to atrophy.

    If you feel like you need to get out of your own way, could it be a sign that you’ve been hiding behind yourself—or protecting an outdated version of who you are? I also do my best to expand on the Off the Lead philosophy and worldview.
