87: Forward is a Pace: Lessons from Disney w/ Katelyn Fox

from My First Marathon · host My First Marathon

Katelyn Fox never thought she’d call herself a runner. A swimmer for 19 years, she once saw running as punishment until a family step challenge led her to buy a treadmill, prove her mom wrong, and slowly discover a love for the sport. Walking turned into jogging, jogging into running, and eventually training for her dream Disney race.That journey took her to the Walt Disney World Marathon, where she followed Jeff Galloway’s run-walk-run plan, pushed through the infamous ESPN Wide World of Sports stretch, and crossed the finish line dressed as a Fastpass. Along the way she found joy in costumes, castle miles, and the Disney magic that kept her moving forward.Her first marathon story is equal parts Disney sparkle and grit, with lessons every runner can take away — especially her mantra: forward is a pace.Follow along with Katelyn on Instagram at @Katelynrunsdisney !My coaching waitlist -> https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScXSdkfbrw_dpynle7LESSFIQmjAdS1_AKerNEEE9v5KA4n5A/viewformFollow along with the show:👣 Personal IG/TikTok: @tay.says / @taysays🎙️ Podcast IG/TikTok: @myfirstmarathonpod📺 YouTube: @MyFirstMarathonPodcast🌐 Website & extras: myfirstmarathonpodcast.com & myfirstmarathonpodcast.com/exclusives
