In our second episode of the year we talk to Áilis McSweeny a former Irish international sprinter and 100m record holder. Áilis talks about her background in running and athletics and about Sanctuary Runners, a solidarity-through-sport initiative which uses running, jogging and walking to bring together asylum seekers, refugees, migrants and all Irish residents. We also meet Lusk AC member Pat Whelan who organises and leads very popular strength and conditioning courses at Lusk AC's Olympic Training Centre.
