Everyone needing inspiration and insight to pursue an ambitious goal should listen to this episode. Recording in front of an audience in Missoula, Montana, Sarah talks with Tori, a first-time half-marathoner; a marathoner named Penny (age 70) going for all 50 states; and Kate, who’s prepping for a 6-day, 120-mile ultramarathon. Marvel as:

-Tori talks about putting in many miles with a double stroller;

-the gals divulge their self-care practices (or not!);

-Penny tells how she’s going even bigger after a marathon in every state;

-Kate and Penny share how they maintain their motivation; and,

-the gals detail what big goals teach them about themselves.

The first big-goal gal joins at 2:54.
