Ray D'Arcy: Exercise helped to keep me sane (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ray DâArcy turned 62 on Tuesday, September 1. Itâs a perfect month to start something new, fitness-wise, he says, rather than struggling to incorporate a fresh habit in January, when âthe weather is crap. You donât feel greatâ. September, with its still-bright mornings, longish evenings, and return to routine, makes more sense for a reset. But there is no one-size-fits-all prescription, the broadcaster says, and finding an activity âthat suitsâ is key. You have reached your article
Claire Byrne: I have to exercise most days, or I can’t function (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The early afternoon sun is streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows of Marconi House’s conference room when broadcaster Claire Byrne breezes in.

Iâm from Wexford. I had a very healthy lifestyle growing up; my mom gave us cod liver oil and apple cider vinegar before that was a thing. There was no chocolate in the house, unfortunately. No sweets. Thatâs why weâre all fiends now! I used to swim and run competitively. [My family] were all big in to sport and always made sure we ate well in order to do that amount of sport. I liked learning. I was a total nerd. It never bothered me having to study. I really liked science, and knew I was
Why modern mothers face relentless pressure to optimise everything (opens the original)
Read excerpt
These days, there’s no escaping optimisation culture and its judgy influence. Apps, tech, and social media constantly feed us information, advice, tips, hacks, and hot takes on how to exercise better, eat better, sleep better, do life better. Once you hop on the betterment bus, just one sub-par sleep score or not hitting your step count on a particular day can make you feel a little like you’re failing at life; and ‘betterment burnout’ — mental, emotional, and physical exhaustion caused by the r
