Becs Goes Around the World in 7 Days with Ultra-Marathoner David Kilgore


Listen Later

One of the world’s best ultramarathoners, David Kilgore, joins Set the Pace this week. He is the current reigning champion of the World Marathon Challenge®, where competitors run 7 marathons on each of the 7 continents in 7 days. David completed 6 of the 7 marathons in under 3 and a half hours, the seventh being his fastest, which he finished in an astonishing 2 hours 41 minutes and 50 seconds. David grew up running cross country and track in Florida and eventually focused on running ultra marathons for the adventure. He talks about what inspired him to take on this ultimate world challenge and what it was like running on every continent, starting in Antarctica, and finishing in Miami. Plus, Becs makes a big announcement about a new challenge that she’s embarking on this year that’s inspired by David’s ultra marathon journey.
