McKay Nelson had never trained for a race in his life. His athletic background was in high school baseball and football — not exactly the resume of a marathoner. But armed with an unshakeable belief that the human body and mind are capable of more than we give them credit for, he set out to prove just that.
90 days. 26.2 miles. Under 3 hours.
In this episode, McKay takes us through the full journey — the training, the doubt, the moments he wanted to quit, and what it actually felt like to toe the start line knowing everything he'd put on the line to get there. His story isn't just about running. It's about what becomes possible when you stop believing in your own limitations.
Whether you're a runner, an athlete, or someone who's ever talked yourself out of something before you even started — this one's for you.
