7 Marathons. 7 Continents. 7 Days. How Wyatt Moss Turned Pain Into Purpose—and Built a Brand Doing It

What drives a 23-year-old to run seven marathons... on seven continents... in just seven days?

Today’s guest isn’t just an endurance athlete—he’s a human experiment in grit, creativity, and storytelling. 

Wyatt Moss has run a marathon in all 50 states, built a woodworking business to fund the journey, and picked up over 100,000 followers along the way—not just for the miles he runs, but for the life he’s building while doing it.

In early 2025, Moss participated in the World Marathon Challenge, running seven marathons on seven continents in seven consecutive days. His completion times ranged from 4:18:48 to 6:35:22, showcasing his resilience and adaptability.

In 2024, Moss completed a marathon in each U.S. state within a single calendar year, culminating with the Honolulu Marathon in December. He financed this endeavor through his woodworking business and documented the journey on social media, amassing over 100,000 followers.

From blisters and jet lag to business strategy and content creation, Wyatt is a maestro in mental endurance and making your passion pay for itself.

In today's conversation, Wyatt takes me through his wild physical pursuits, his mindsets behind them, how he has become more self-aware, his wild experiences like running a marathon in every state last year and doing the World Marathon Challenge, and shares insights into his next biggest challenge.
