Whether you're injured or PB'ing every race, finding running easy or bored off your head by the thought of it...chances are some form of cross training is going to enhance your experience. Sonia O'Sullivan, the queen of Irish athletics, makes the case for the one part of running that most people avoid. She talks to Jarlath Regan about the massive return you can see from even a little swimming, cycling or gym work. If the thought of that makes you groan, Sonia's wise words might turn your head.
It's a little over a week until she lands back in Ireland and her home town of Cobh. That's right, the Ballymore Cobh AC annual home-coming dance - the Sonia O'Sullivan Cobh 10 Mile Road Race is almost here. We hear from a few members of the squad Sonia handpicked to coach over the last 12 weeks. How should your pace change in race consisting of big hills and rolling descents? Sonia has the answer.
