I am Olympian Kerry Tullifson and welcome to the C-Tolly Run podcast.

Today on the show, I bring you Rhonda Viteri.

Rhonda is a global executive, STEM ambassador, speaker, triathlete, two-time author, mentor,

and amongst other things, she is most

recently a six-star world marathon major finisher. In this episode, we talk all about how I met Ronda,

how she got into sports and STEM, how she manages to work, train, and inspire. When I met her a couple of months ago,

I instantly knew her story needed to be told on C-Tali-Ran.

This woman is the definition of getting after it.

So let's just get after it.

All right, Rhonda, I'm so excited.

We finally get to do this recording for C-Tali Run. So thank you for taking the time and coming on the show. Absolutely. I'm so excited too. Thanks for making the time. Well, you know, you and I've been going back and forth before the New York City Marathon and then after and, you know, life is busy. especially for you. You all over the place and and you're getting after it

and i was you said to me this morning what are you going to ask me about and i'm like i could ask you

about all of the stuff because you just have so much fun going on in your life and you give back so

much so i'm just really excited to get to know you and have my listeners get to know you as well thank you

carey that means a lot means a lot from you well let's hear about you okay so right now you're currently in transit

you're kind of travel all over the world but i really want to hear first and foremost because you're

coming off the new york city marathon where you and your buddy I'm going to let you explain it, but you guys did

all six marathons, all six majors in one year. So tell us about it. Oh, thanks, Carrie. Yes,

Chris Nick is, um, we did all six majors and that's where you and I met too in Berlin. Yes.

And we had a wonderful year and Chris for those viewers that don't know, he's the first human that has done the full Iron Man. And then he has done all the six majors now in one year. He's the first person with Down syndrome to complete all an Iron Man and do all six in one year. And he just inspires everyone, Carrie, with what he has with Down syndrome and completing things. And, you know, we're best friends now. And I just think the world of him. And I just love to help, you know, I just love to help him. Well, I have had Chris on the show. And then, you know, I've gotten to meet him a few times. And then we've kept up. Like, he'll randomly send me a note and be like, hey, when are you going to come and run a half marathon with me or whatever? And, you know, obviously I would do it in a heartbeat, but we haven't been able to line one up with my line of work. So, but he is so, he gets after it, doesn't he? I mean, that is his thing about,
