Day 78 of preparing to run 3,000 kilometers around Ireland’s coast—a monumental challenge dubbed the Million Euro Lap to raise €1 million for charity. Today, Damian Browne is buzzing with momentum, four weeks into cycle two of his training. From 5:00 AM gym crowds in Australia to big jumps in strength and distance, this dispatch is a testament to grit, adaptation, and the power of routine.
Week four is all about pushing the numbers—time on feet, load, speed—and Damian’s delivering. With running volumes climbing and strength sessions intensifying, he’s hitting RQS scores in the low 8s (averaging 8.3), a sign of peak form. But a familiar foe lurks: a niggle in his Achilles-calf region forces a recalibration. Sled pulls, biking, and heavy leg work take center stage as he navigates the balance between progress and preservation. Tune in for a raw reflection on thriving under pressure, the magic of seven-hour sleep, and why resistance fuels the journey.
In This Episode:
✔️ 5:00 AM gym warriors: The surprising crowd inspiring Damian’s early morning grind
✔️ Cycle two, week four: Pushing distance, speed, and strength with sled pulls and heavy leg sessions
✔️ Achilles alert: Managing a sudden niggle with smart adjustments—biking over running
✔️ Sleep as a superpower: How 7+ hours a night is boosting recovery and performance
