Summary

Sonia guides Jarlath through the maze of pitfalls when buying a stocking filler for the runner in your life. With so many running products swamping our timelines, what’s good and what’s not, what’s the safe bet and what’s too personal to bother even trying to guess. Jarlath finds a few odds and ends that he found online and a few bits and pieces that he says will go down a treat. There’s also news on the Irishman Running Abroad challenge. Jarlath gets told off for not listening to Sonia’s guidance on rehabilitation last week and admits he got too excited about being able to run again.
