Find out what it’s like to run 7 marathons on 7 continents in 7 days as Becs recaps her amazing experience tackling The Great World Race. She reflects on what inspired her to take on the challenge and how it played out from Antarctica to Miami. From heading to Antarctica a day early to avoid an impending storm to running loops on a track in Australia and back-and-forth repeats in Istanbul while dodging fishing lines to fighting humidity and near-triple-digit temps, Becs learned so much about herself and the power of resilience. Tune in to find out how she was able to push through even while struggling with a foot injury, GI issues, and major doubts. Also, hear from Hillary Kupish who secured the top overall finisher spot at The Great World Race (with Becs a close second) after having run the TCS New York City Marathon just 10 days before.
