327. Embracing Discomfort: Kirsten Ferguson On Running Her First Marathon, Overcoming Injury & Stepping Into Your Power

There’s no one I’d rather debrief the marathon with than the ever-inspiring Kirsten Ferguson. We're sitting down to talk through those special 26.2 miles in detail and the journey to the marathon starting line over the past 16 training weeks with her. Beyond the training cycle, we also get deep into Kirsten’s journey from a holistic view, starting with a gnarly injury and major setback that paused her marathon journey for a while.

The Peloton instructor takes us through the months on the road to recover where she truly struggled both physically and mentally and how she turned to her community for strength. We talk about the nerves that come with stepping into the unknown and how Kirsten keeps those feelings at bay as well as what she’s excited about and looking forward to post 26.2.
