In today’s 69th episode of the show we are joined by the Race Director of the Irish Life Dublin Marathon, Jim Aughney.
We chat about the reasons why he is still excited about the race in his fourth decade of managing it, the things that wake him up in the middle of the night and the importance of the agreement with Dublin City Council to keep the race at the heart of the City.
Irish Life won the Best of Europe Sponsorship Award for the event last year and we talk as well about the importance of partnerships.
The Irish Life Dublin Marathon takes place on Sunday, October 27th and promises to be another great occasion for the runners, the spectators and the city.
Coming up in the next three episodes we will be chatting with Laura Webber, designer of the Irish Olympic Outfits, Brian Molloy, the newly elected President of the Camogie Association and Pat Fenlon of Electric Ireland on sponsorship and the continued importance of Darkness Into Light.
