Happy National Athletic Training Month!

In this episode, we sit down with an extraordinary runner, Mike Willets, ATC, who has completed a marathon in all 50 states—not once, but twice, and is currently working on his third round! He has also tackled marathons on all seven continents, including the icy landscapes of Antarctica. All this after beginning his running journey at 45!

He is a member of "Marathon Maniacs" and has run more than 150 marathons!

We discuss his incredible running journey, how he stays motivated and how he has dealt with injuries at 72, and what advice he has for both young and older runners looking to start or maintain their fitness journey. Whether you're considering your first 5K or dreaming of a marathon, this episode is packed with insights to inspire runners of all ages.
