About this listen

After her boyfriend John's diabetes diagnosis turned their world upside down, Katy Cook made a life-changing decision: they were going to get healthy together.

In this episode, Route 66 Marathon Ambassador Katy shares how swapping soda for sweat led to more than just weight loss, it sparked a transformation that reshaped her mental health, physical strength and relationship.

From 300+ lbs and multiple knee surgeries to tackling her first half marathon at Route 66, Katy’s story is one of raw honesty, relentless grit and the power of a supportive running community. We talk about food, fitness, music that gets her moving and what it really means to become a runner — even if you don’t think you look like one.

Tune in to hear how Katy lost over 100 lbs, found purpose on the pavement and learned that every finish line starts with just one step.
