Podcast appearances and mentions of aoife cooke

Women across Australia are continuing to choose to become solo mothers by choice, using assisted fertilization (IVF, donor) because of factors like age and social infertility.   We're joined by solo mothers, Aoife Cooke and Liz Cashen who take us through their fertility journey.  The decision to start the journey as a solo mother can be a daunting step but with online communities and support groups the process doesn't have to be as lonely.

Episode 30 - Results, Fixtures & the Big Interview with Aoife Cooke

Fionnuala McCormack has finished seventh in the marathon at the European Championships in Munich. The twice European Cross-Country champion was in the lead group all the way through until the final five kilometres - she led at various points of the race. Ann-Marie McGlynn was 28th, with Aoife Cooke 34th, and both have different reasons to be satisfied with their displays in the high noon Munich heat. (Pic - Athletics Ireland)

On his own this week, Brian looks backs on the weeks results and upcoming events. Damian caught up with Aoife Cooke after the European Championships Marathon in Munich and we also here from Paul Moloney winner of the Liscarrol AC 7 miler.

In this episode, we look at warm weather training, altitude training, elite marathon training, and how to transition a club runner into an Olympian. We examine Aoife Cooke's journey from club runner to Olympian and Ireland's fourth fastest marathoner of all-time. We also have an introductory look at elite marathoner Edwin Kiptoo's training.

Aoife is a proud member of Eagle A.C. and has represented the club over a multitude of distances from 5km to marathon.  In her late teens Aoife attended Arkansas Tech University on an athletics scholarship and showed great promise as a junior athlete, representing Ireland in the Euro XC in 2005. Unfortunately, injury prevented her from reaching her full athletic potential at that time. Coming home to Ireland, she took time to recover, rebuild and reignite a love of running. A New Year's resolution to run the Cork City Marathon in 2015 paved the way for her to commence her marathon running journey which has seen her return to the top step of the podium and build on her achievements in running. With some key race successes, coupled with changes to her career and her training in recent years,  Aoife Cooke has run her way into the history books and has ambitious and exciting plans to excel even further in her chosen sport of marathon running. This was a fun chat with Aoife, her humility and positivity shines through in this episode, we get some incredible insight to her journey in sport and once again are reminded that our dreams and goals are never too far out of reach with courage, commitment and a desire to succeed. 

As a fan of the sport, I was excited to speak with the following two athletes. Steph Davies won the British Olympic marathon trials and qualified for the Tokyo Olympics and will represent Great Britain, she finished in 2:27:16 (this interview starts at 2:45). Aoife Cooke won the Cheshire Elite Marathon and qualified for the Tokyo Olympics and will represent Ireland, she finished in 2:28:36 (this interview starts at 24:17). To listen to the previous conversation with Aoife check out episode 12. Both athletes overcame different challenges within their running careers, which can get forgotten when both athletes looked in such good form earning the Olympic marathon qualifying times. In both conversations we dive into the training build up, the race, and the work leading towards Olympics. I wish them both a strong Olympic build up and great marathon race experience. ————————————————————— The links are: Steph: @steph_davis26 Aoife: @aoifecookefitness Aoife’s gofundme page to support her Olympic buildup.

Before sitting down to chat to national marathon champion Aoife Cooke, Jar and Sonia take a moment to announce and explain three new Irishman Running Abroad events suitable for all kinds of runners. The two time world champion has put a lot of time and effort into coming up with events that will keep you motivated through lent. By challenging us all to see can we gain as much elevation as possible Sonia takes our training to new heights and Jarlath hopes his aching legs can keep up. Aoife Cook knows a thing or two about aching legs. Her training program includes almost 200K per week as she gears up for Tokyo. Jarlath and Sonia ask her all about her journeys to Arkansas to Kenya and how a rare bone issue forced her out of running for seven years. Aoife’s inspiring attitude to training is something that we all need right now in these challenging times. There are a few laughs as usual during the quick fire round.

Aoife Cooke had a promising junior Cross Country career that brought her to Arkansas Tech on a scholarship. She initially had success at college, but she struggled with osteopenia, the resulting injuries cut her college time short and she returned home. With the pause in her running career, she dropped off the radar, and she went through a challenging time as her running future looked uncertain. We dive into this and explore the steps, she took to have run the fastest marathon ever run by an Irish woman in Ireland in Dublin 2019 2:32:34. Coached by John Starrett, she has run the 5th fastest marathon time ever recorded by an Irish female runner. Her goal following Dublin is to achieve Olympic qualification. She needed more than motivation, to be the runner she is today. And I know you’ll leave this conversation feeling inspired. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/marcus-brown9/support

Independent Living Units were built roughly from the 1950s to the 80s as a form of housing for older people - but since government funding for the program ended, nobody's really looked at the conditions or issues for the many thousands of people still living in them.

We talk about that research and the pros and cons of ILUs as a form of housing for older people, and some recommendations for improving them. Don't forget you can contact HAAG if you have a problem in an ILU, or want more information about these and other housing options.
