In this episode I talk to Moire O'Sullivan @moire_osullivan - mountain runner, writer and Mum of 2.
Moire talks openly about her lack of maternal instinct when she had her boys and the importance of staying active and competing during her pregnancies and afterwards. She then went on to write a book about her experience which I found hugely inspirational; Bump Bike & Baby.
In 2018 Moire's partner and the father of her sons suffered from depression and took his own life, leaving Moire as a single mother. She talks about the importance of support from her friends which has enabled her to continue to get out into the mountains and recently to complete Cassie's Challenge.
Moire also talks about how she manages her training as a single mum with the assistance of a coach to ensure her sessions are efficient as possible and rely on a lot of cross training now that she can't spend as much time running.
Moire's new book; A Quarter Glass of Milk about the suicide of her husband is available now.
