	Description:		In 2008, Mirna Valerio thought she had a heart attack. It actually turned out to be an anxiety attack behind the wheel of her car — something she never thought would happen to her. At the time, her cardiologist told her that if she didn't make some major lifestyle changes, she wouldn't be around long enough to watch her son grow up. Fast forward to today, she's an avid marathoner and ultramarathoner, known to her rapid social media following as "the Mirnavator." For episode 125, we chat about everything from her backstory to what it was like running both her first 5K and the Javelina 100. We also talk about navigating injury and adjusting expectations, what it's like to be a sponsored athlete when your body is your business, and the profound impact her community has left on her life. Mirna's positivity for life is contagious. You've been warned.
