What does it take to run a marathon every single Sunday for an entire year?
In this episode, I sit down with Kati Israel, an endurance athlete originally from Estonia and now living in Montreal, who has taken on the remarkable challenge of running 52 marathons in 52 weeks. That's 26.2 miles every Sunday for a full year.
I recently caught up with Kati at the San Diego Rock 'n' Roll Marathon, where she completed marathon number 22 of her journey. Along the way, she is raising money for charity while inspiring runners around the world to believe in themselves, stay disciplined, and pursue goals that may seem impossible.
Kati shares the physical and mental demands of the challenge, the lessons she's learned through consistency and commitment, the highs and lows of running week after week, and how this experience has transformed her perspective on endurance, resilience, and purpose.
Whether you're training for your first marathon, chasing a personal best, or looking for motivation to tackle your own ambitious goals, this conversation is packed with inspiration and practical lessons from someone living the challenge one Sunday at a time.
