#448 - Hebah Hefzy, MD: From Struggling with Stairs to 26 Marathons, 6 BQ's and a 100 Miler

It was so fun catching up with Dr Hebah Hefzy (Heb Samir) here on our 11th episode of the MDRT podcast. Hebah is a vascular neurologist in Michigan, single mom of 3 gorgeous kiddos and an avid marathoner! She has qualified for the Boston marathon 4 times, most recently at the 2019 Chicago marathon with a shiny new PR. We talk all things marathon training as a single mom, Doctor and woman of faith, and how it feels to not necessarily blend in all the time and what unites all of us. Thank you Hebah for an awesome conversation and please enjoy!
