Fun fact: A 70-year-old woman ran 7 marathons on 7 continents in 7 days
From Jan. 25 to 31, 2017, 70-year-old Chau Smith of Missouri completed marathons in Perth, Australia; Singapore; Cairo; Amsterdam; Garden City, New York; Punta Arenas, Chile; and King George Island, Antarctica.
According to CNN, Smith would wake up and run 26.2 miles (roughly 42 km) each day during the “Triple 7 Quest” challenge. Once a marathon was completed, she would get on a plane, fly to the next destination and do it all over again.
“It took me eight months to really train,” said Smith. “The last four months, I really put in long, long runs. Every week, I ran from 15 miles to 130 miles.”
