Over the next few weeks, we will be featuring different Run Clubs in our Thursday Specials. This week, we have Laura Garrigan (@laws_fitness on Instagram) and 41 Social Run Club.
Laura shares her journey from a casual runner to a certified running coach. She discusses her experiences with various races, including the Trasna 2025 relay, and emphasises the importance of mental health in running. Laura also highlights her efforts to build a community through her run club and her aspirations for the future, including training for her first marathon (which she completed in Dublin a few weeks ago) and getting into the fitness industry
