Mizen to Malin, Episode 3: Mill Street to⦠Mill Street š¤¦āāļø Colin, Andrew and Matt are back with the idiotās guide to running across Ireland. We pick up on day three in Mill Street and somehow get ourselves all the way back to Mill Street. Plenty of effort. Familiar scenery. We talk Ryan Number One getting lost in the hills, windmills, and our route through the mountainsāwhere āare we sure this is the way?ā becomes an increasingly reasonable question. Meanwhile, a Garmin watch breaks down, apparently deciding it didnāt sign up for this either. Thereās also chat about Celine and Andrewās best āWhatās up, guys?ā Because when your navigation is questionable, at least your entrance can be confident. Expect running adventures, mountain miles, dodgy directions and the usual nonsense from Idiots Go Running. Whether youāre into Mizen to Malin, ultrarunning, trail running, endurance challenges or three lads explaining how it all went sideways, youāre in the right place.

MIZEN TO MALIN ā PART 02: MIZEN HEAD TO MILLSTREET The Mizen to Malin adventure begins. In Part 01, we leave Mizen Head and battle through the opening three days of our 350-mile journey across Ireland. By the end of Day 03, weāve made it to our B&B in Millstreet ā tired, sore and beginning to understand just how enormous this challenge really is. Two runners with MS. One brilliant support crew. A Guinness World Record attemptāand a long road still ahead. This is the honest, unpolished story of MS Runs Ireland: the running, the exhaustion, the laughs and the people helping us keep moving north.

DAY 00⦠THE ROAD TO MIZEN Today is not a running day. Today is the chaos before the chaos. Cars packed. Kit everywhere. Food boxes loaded. Chargers hopefully remembered. First aid packed like we are opening a small pharmacy. Coffee ready. Nerves very much kicking in. We are making our way to Mizen Head, the very bottom of Ireland, where this whole ridiculous, beautiful adventure begins. Tomorrow we start running from Mizen to Malin. Around 350 miles. Two runners with MS. One massive challenge. A Guinness World Record attempt. A nightly podcast. A crew held together by caffeine, kindness and probably Haribo. This journey is about MS, hope, research, friendship, and showing what can still be possible when life throws something massive at you. Tonight we sleep near the start line. Tomorrow⦠we move.
