“As Long As I’m Going, I’m Growing”

In this episode we speak with with longtime listener and Academy member Yali Szulanski, about how running has become a practice of recovery, faith, and learning to feel safe and strong in her body—and how to pursue ambitious goals without tying your worth to the outcome.

Yali Szulanski is a rabbi, mother of three, writer, and spiritual and emotional counselor. She’s an Academy Member and long-time listener to the podcast and is running the NYC Marathon and Philadelphia Marathons this fall.

“I’ve listened to Marathon Training Academy since training for my first marathon in 2019. Since then, your voices have accompanied me through 13 marathons, who knows how many half marathons, and a 50K, countless early mornings, difficult training cycles, personal milestones, and many seasons of life.”
