Outrunning the Heat? This Climate Activist is Running Seven Marathons in Seven Days | Marathon runners are facing increasing threats as climate change accelerates.
Last year, Kenny Moll was preparing for his third marathon in three days when an ominous haze settled over Chicago. The 23-year-old activist was on a mission to complete seven marathons in one week to raise awareness for the impacts of climate change. But he couldn’t outrun the one that was activel...
I wanted to be make fun of a such a privileged perspective in the title, thankfully the article is more balanced:
“Moll recognizes that climate change poses an existential threat to his ability to run outside—and that this passion in and of itself is a “luxury.”
“The environment and the health of our climate is so intertwined with the ability to run,” he told me, pointing out that many countries in the Global South are bearing the brunt of climate impacts. “Not everyone is afforded the material conditions to have a passion like ultra-endurance running.”
