What's it like training for a marathon with type 1 diabetes (T1D)? Just ask Erika Szumel, Marketing Coordinator at Blue Circle Health. Erika ran her first marathon with Beyond Type 1 in 2022.

Erika went from 0 to 26.2 miles in under one year at the TCS New York City Marathon! A seriously impressive feat for any runner, much less one living with T1D.

In this episode, Erika shares her inspiring journey, lessons learned along the way, and the advice she'd share with others who have big goals with type 1 diabetes.

🔵 Check out the awesome work Erika and her team are doing at bluecirclehealth.org.

Thanks for tuning in!
