b"Sika Henry is a professional triathlete, as well as a marathon and ultra runner. She is the first African American woman to earn her pro card in triathlon, which she did in 2021. And, in 2020, she ran a sub-3-hour marathon which added her name to The List, which accounts for all of the American-born Black women who have broken 3 hours in the marathon. There are currently 30 women on The List.\\nSika is relatively new to the world of ultra running, and once she'd gotten a taste of the sport, she wanted to choose a meaningful event to aim for. At the suggestion of her mentor, Dan Empfield, she chose to tackle the 90km/56-mile Comrades Marathon in South Africa.\\nThis is the story of Sika Henry's experience at this, the world's oldest and largest ultra-distance foot race. Though all didn't go to plan, Sika came away with memories for a lifetime.\\nKeep Up With Sika Henry\\nInstagram: @sikahenry\\nWebsite: https://www.sikahenry.com/\\nMentioned in this Episode\\nHear Her Sports: http://www.hearhersports.com/\\nKeeping Track: https://keeping-track.com/\\nNYT Article Mentioned by Sika Henry: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/04/sports/comrades-marathon-hoseah-tjale.html\\nEpisodes featuring women's experiences at the Comrades Marathon\\nEpisodes Featuring Women on The List\\nErica Stanley-Dottin: A Sub-3-Hour Marathon Goal, A Team Dream Soars\\nErika Kemp: Championships, Challenges, and a Marathon Debut\\nWays to Connect and Engage with Women's Running Stories\\nInstagram: @womensrunningstories\\nTwitter: @WomenRunStories\\nWebsite: womensrunningstories.com\\nEmail host Cherie: clouiseturner@gmail.com\\nWomen's Running Stories is a member of the Evergreen network: https://evergreenpodcasts.com/"
