It was during his appearance on this show, while spending time working with a suicide awareness group in Dublin, that he hit a breaking point. Witnessing first-hand the destructive nature that depression and mental illness could bring during the show, he faced a tipping point of his own. One that he had to face head on.As you’ll hear from my conversation with Jim, he’s been through a lot in the last 6 years. During this period, he’s been on his own immense journey, not only working through his own depression and mental health challenges, but also helping raise the awareness of the challenges others face that far too often goes unspoken. One very notable outcome of this is the charity cycle against suicide that Jim helped set up in 2013 on the back of his appearance on the show.This is without doubt one of the most engaging and real conversations I’ve done so far in the two seasons.

Ever the Irish man, the conversation was an adventure in story telling. I have the sketch in my note pad of how Jim planned Cycle Against Suicide. I refer to that sketch at least once a week as I build 2.23am. Having now spent time with Jim in Ireland, participated in a Cycle Against Suicide spin off, and met many of the wonderful people in Jim' life, I can say that Jim is only just getting started. Strap in folks, you are in for a wonderful ride. Inspiring,

This week Breifne Earley speaks to 1987 Tour de France champion Stephen Roche about his induction into the Cycling Ireland Hall of Fame, watching Nicolas develop as a professional cyclist, MAMIL's and the future of leisure cycling holidays as family affairs.

The founder of Cycle Against Suicide, Jim Breen, takes his turn in the sporting spotlight this week and chats to Breifne about his own love of sport , particularly rowing, growing up. They also chat about the album, Simple Things, which was released by a collection of Irish artists which was released today and went straight in at number one in the iTunes downloads charts.
