Episode 61
The Irish runner's story: her BBC feature (26,000+ likes, 10,983 shares, 2.5m views), living with three types of chronic epilepsy and averaging 16 seizures a day, seizure auras and what happens when one strikes mid-run, giving up competitive water skiing at 13 as the epilepsy worsened, doctors who consider her running dangerous, her neurologist and race partner Colin who runs races alongside her so she doesn't get pulled from them by paramedics, her two marathons, and her ten-odd parkruns at Cabinteely, including the one filmed by the BBC, her first with a recorded time because until then she hadn't realised parkrun timed you.
