Sandy Stiner is one heck of a runner. In this show we talk about the Blue Ridge Marathon which bills itself as America's toughest road marathon. Sandy and I ran the marathon together on April 20, 2013. But here is what's incredible about this story: Sandy ran the Martian Marathon the week before Blue Ridge, a 100k the week after, and then another marathon a week after that. And if that's not almost unbelievable, she is running a 100 miler the weekend of June 1, 2013! Enjoy the show.
