Episode 76 of The Final Sprint Podcast features my interview with Mary Chervenak; one of the 20 members of the Blue Planet Run Team who just finished an around-the-world, 95 day and 15,000 mile running adventure to raise money for safe drinking water projects, increase global awareness and to demonstrate the need for the world’s population to band together to bring an end to this problem (Click here to watch a YouTube video about the BPR!).
In the interview Mary discusses her team’s efforts, training for and completing this international running and philanthropic quest, and it’s impact, both 
emotionally and physically, the Blue Planet Runners.
Download the podcast to hear Mary discuss these topics, as well as, her response to critics who deem the Dow Chemical’s sponsorship as “hypocritical”, why the route did not go through Africa, plans to continue the run every two years, and much more!
