The marathon distance (26.2 miles) can be quite the challenge, but Karen is one of the most dedicated runners we know and has completed this distance several times before. She just celebrated her 70th birthday, and if you know her, you know she is quite the inspirationwe hope to someday still be running at 70 like her!
