Today’s guest is a lady who churns out miles like it’s no big deal.
Recently, she knocked out just over 700 miles in 23 days, earning herself a place in the Guinness Book of World Records!
I’m looking forward to going a few easy miles with Megan Cassidy and learning more about the new record and so much more!

Norma Bastidas got into running the same way that many people do: to deal with the stress that was bubbling up in her life from a variety of fronts.
