Running 30 Marathons Before Turning 30 - Liz Warner

Running 30 Marathons Before Turning 30 - Liz Warner

Author: Francis Tapon March 12, 2020 Duration: 53:49

Liz Warner is going to run 30 marathons before she turns 30 years old in June 2020. However, her real accomplishment is raising nearly $30,000 for 20 charities in the process!  


In this podcast, we discuss some of the highlights and lowlights of her first 27 marathons and her Run To Reach experience.


She's going to finish on Mt. Everest in late May 2020.


Go to her donation page and follow her on Instagram.


Liz mentioned the Effective Altruism TED Talk as an inspiration. 


In the podcast, I couldn't remember the name of the guy who ran 50 marathons in 50 states in 50 consecutive days. The guy's name is Dean Karnazes.


Confession: I goofed. I didn't realize how many marathons Liz Warner had run in Africa. I only asked her about a couple of them. I would have liked to delve into all of them. 


Still, in our one-hour conversation, we cover a lot of ground!

There's a certain kind of travel that changes you, not just your location. It’s the slow, immersive kind where the journey itself becomes the teacher. In WanderLearn: Travel to Transform Your Mind & Life, Francis Tapon acts as your guide into this world, exploring how leaving familiar ground can fundamentally reshape your perspective. This isn't about quick tips or itineraries; it's about the deeper conversations that happen at the crossroads of culture, society, and personal growth. Each episode delves into how we engage with places and people, often weaving in discussions about the role of modern technology in both enabling and complicating these profound experiences. You'll hear stories and insights that challenge the conventional tourist mindset, pushing toward a more thoughtful, engaged way of moving through the world. Francis draws from a wealth of experience to discuss concepts like vagabonding and deep travel, making the case that the greatest souvenirs aren't trinkets, but transformed thoughts. Tuning into this podcast feels like sitting down with a well-traveled friend who understands that the real destination is often a shift within yourself. It’s for anyone who believes that travel, at its best, is a powerful catalyst for learning and living differently.
