Congrats to MTA coaching client Marly who actually just finished 1,000 miles for the year. She ran a full marathon on July 31st.
Today I did a full virtual marathon with the Social Distance Run 2. The run was easier compared to last week but air quality was still moderate to severe from wild fires. It has been over 2 years when I ran my last marathon (5:02). Today my time was 4:39:46 (5 minutes faster than my target). Thanks to Coach Lynn for all he training and support and to Angie & Trevor for your resources and challenges. This group is awesome! -Marly

In this episode we speak with Hillary Allen, author of the book Out and Back -A Runner’s Story of Survival Against All Odds.
In 2017 she nearly died at an ultramarathon when she fell 150 feet off an exposed mountain ridge and had to be rescued by helicopter.
She returned two years after her accident and conquered the course that almost killed her.
The moment has finally arrived and the 1,000 Mile Challenge is ready! Since running is an expression of our humanity, and a gift that keeps on giving, we took the famous Sistine Chapel painting by Michelangelo and made a unique version for you.
We also have new levels in the run tracker between 700-1,000 and a brand new MTA running hat design! See my video on this page.
