Description
Amanda Mills Sirois is our special guest this week and it is exciting to have her on our show. Amanda started running indirectly because of a 5km wine run, and things took off from that point. With her running partner Allison, they ran the Ottawa marathon and came close to qualifying for Boston. Hired a coach to help with qualifying, job done. Raised money in support of Down Syndrome and ran the legendary Boston Marathon. Amanda was not done yet, not even close. Managed to run all 6 of the major marathons in 4 years, how does one top that? Well Marathon Pour Tous in France, that's how. Recreational or non-elite athletes have been invited to participate in an Olympic event for the first time. Running the same course as the marathon athletes and with an Olympic medal in 2024, amazing.
