From Menindee to New York, Mina Guli has run 200 marathons to put water on the global stage

03/23/2023

Mina Guli's body is broken and battered as she runs up to the steps of the United Nations in New York having just completed her 200th marathon in a year, traversing 8,440 kilometres across the world and arriving at the first UN Water Conference in 46 years.

It's a long way from her home country of Australia where she began 12 months ago, but the millions of dead fish floating down the Darling-Baaka River at Menindee are in the forefront of her mind — and the whole reason she's put her body on the line.
