Anna McNuff embarks on an audacious journey to run 100 marathons through all 50 American states, taking on a challenge that would test even the most seasoned adventurer. Covering over 2,600 miles from Hawaii to Alaska, she encounters the full spectrum of America's landscapes, communities, and characters along the way.
With trademark humour and unflinching honesty, McNuff shares the physical and mental battles of running consecutive marathons whilst relying on the kindness of strangers for accommodation. Her journey reveals not just the diverse beauty of America's backcountry, but the warmth and generosity of the people she meets. This is an inspiring tale about pushing boundaries, embracing discomfort, and discovering what humans are truly capable of when they dare to dream big.
