Imagine running seven marathons… on seven continents… in just seven days. Sounds impossible, right? Well, Charlie Tétrault did just that—alongside his brother, Rob—pushing themselves to the limit in one of the most grueling endurance challenges on the planet: the World Marathon Challenge.

Charlie joins us fresh off this once-in-a lifetime experience to share what it was really like—how the friendly competition with his brother kept him going, the fascinating people they met along the way, and the brutal realities of running on little sleep  in extreme weather conditions. Spoiler alert: Day 2 in Cape Town nearly broke him. And while Rob took the overall time victory, the brothers went head-to-head each day, earning the title of fastest siblings to finish 777.
