In February, Keri Mandell '04 completed the World Marathon Challenge — running seven marathons in seven days on seven different continents. In this episode, Mandell discusses her motivation for this endurance feat, her training, and her transition from educator to entrepreneur, when she opened emPOWER Yoga N.J.

Through this event, Mandell — a cancer survivor herself — raised more than $56,000 for the American Cancer Society in honor of her father, who died of multiple myeloma. See her fundraising page: http://main.acsevents.org/goto/KeriMandell
