About this episode
Live from the annual TCS New York City Marathon Partner Forum, Rob is joined by Anne Valentzas, Senior Vice President of Consumer Marketing and Sponsorships at Mastercard, where she spearheads the global Priceless program, curating experiences that connect cardholders to culture, sport, and sustainability initiatives. This Saturday is the Mastercard New York Mini 10K Women’s Race and Anne, who is an avid runner, ran her first Mini 10K in 1996. The race brings an incredible professional field, including 2022 TCS New York City Marathon winner Sharon Lokedi who also won the United Airlines NYC Half in March in an event-record time of 1:07:04. In April, she not only won the Boston Marathon but shattered the women’s course record with a 2:17:22 finish. She joins Rob and Anne to talk about her preparation leading up to the iconic Mastercard New York Mini 10K.
