The Marathon challenge
I have set a two-part distance challenge for myself in 2024. I want to run to Marathon, Greece (virtually, in a straight line distance) and back. I arrived in Marathon, Greece slightly ahead of schedule on June 22nd. You can follow along with my challenge on the map below!
- The goal distance is 5135.55km, the distance from where I usually start my runs to Marathon, Greece and back.
- Now, 194 days into the challenge, I need to run 13.73km per day, or 96.14km per week, starting tomorrow.
- At the end of today (July 13, 2025) I should have run 2729.58km to stay on pace.
