This episode was recorded live on location at the King Neptune Café in Wrightsville Beach, NC, so while the audio may be a little rough, the conversation is anything but.
Host Sally Hed Dahlquist sits down with mega-marathoner and scientist Christelle Douillet, just one day after Christelle completed her 300th marathon earning her a spot on the prestigious World Mega Marathoners list. Over celebratory drinks (a “bloody marathon,” anyone?), the two swap stories about hydration mishaps, surprise personal records, and the quiet mental shifts that come from doing something hard over and over again.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- What it takes to run 300+ marathons... and why some don’t count
- How Christelle's Berlin PR shifted her identity as a runner
- What scientists drink after a marathon (spoiler: it's salty)
- How both women use running as a tool for discovery, recovery, and redefining limits
- The connection between arsenic, diabetes, and Christelle’s groundbreaking research
