Description

I know that many listeners of my podcast, Living a Life in Full, are athletes, and many of them are runners – from 5ks to ultras and everything else in between. I also know that a lot of my audience members are travelers – local, global, adventure – you name it. Imagine if those interests overlapped like a Vinn Diagram where that confluence would be running a marathon, on each continent, in 7 days. Impossible? 

Well, no.

But how would you even manage the logistics of such a challenge?

That’s where Dr. David Kelly, MD, comes in. David is the Founder and Race Director of The Great World Race, an event in which participants attempt to complete a marathon on each of the 7 continents over a 7-day period. 

It’s been said that The Great World Race not only tests the physical and mental fortitude of its participants but also promotes cultural exchange and global unity, bringing together individuals from diverse backgrounds to share in the spirit of competition and cooperation.

David is a wonderful example of living his life in full, and he creates amazing experiences that have been life changing for many in their journey to living their lives in full.
