In this episode Michelle and Patrick demystify the “wow” factor that surrounds the idea of running and finishing a marathon in midlife.

Patrick reflects on his recent experience of training for and completing the 2024 Dublin marathon.

Topics include:-

• Patrick’s one and only previous marathon experience at 18 (exactly 40 years ago)
• Why Dublin and why Marie Curie, his chosen charity;
• The unexpected mindset impact of donations;
• The simplicity of his training plan, including strength training, recovery and nutrition
• The mindset benefits of being an “older” runner
• The importance of supporting and encouraging each other to keep fit as we age…and celebrating the challenge you set for yourself no matter how big or small

Michelle and Patrick wish to thank everyone who supported Patrick whether verbally or via donations which totalled over £1,500 and, for those interested, Patrick’s time was 3 hours 44 mins, just 10 minutes longer than his marathon time when 18 years old...

If you have a challenge at the back of your mind we hope this chat will inspire you to take that small step towards achieving your goal, no matter how old you are.

Let’s talk on to walk on with Patrick and Michelle and see where it leads…

What does the term "Midlife Crisis" mean to you? Are you going through one or been through one? Is it something we all go through as we navigate midlife?

Midlife is a time when we have increased responsibilities and can become overwhelmed with decisions whilst often distracted with other people’s problems. We also begin to question the life choices we’ve made.

Patrick and Michelle discuss their different interpretations on the midlife crisis label and offer tips on what has worked for them including, how to ignore inevitable judgmental eye-rolls and Michelle’s approach to the topic with her coaching clients.

This episode puts a fresh perspective on the cliches and stereotypes that surround the term midlife crisis.

Do you ever take the time to stop for a minute, and think about the last few weeks or months and what’s happened in your life or more precisely what you’ve achieved?

There are no rules with timing and we can be rubbish at remembering but we want to get better and help you do the same.

So this is our offering based on the first half of 2024. To help us add value we’ve linked our reflections to Patrick’s Midlife to 100 life pillars that he’s chosen as key to living a long and healthy life. They are:- physical health, mental wellness, sleep, nutrition and social interaction/relationships.

We discuss how we’ve stayed connected with family and old friends, both at home and abroad; we reflect on some personal achievements and how the simple things in life, like gardening, dogs and sleep keep us sane in our busy world.

So have a listen and then take a minute to think about what you’ve achieved during the first half of the year. We promise you’ll be pleasantly surprised plus it will help generate thoughts and ideas as to your plans for the year ahead.

So let’s ‘talk on to walk on’ and see where it leads…
