Coach my marathon prep and keep my fundraising on track

Reality-TV personality Cory Wharton documents training for the NYC Marathon using his AI 'Anthony', set up as a world-class marathon coach (#metapartner video). Anthony provides his weekly mileage plan, sends check-in notifications, tracks completion in a Marathon Prep Tracker (shown progressing 8/10 to 10/10 miles), and helps strategise fundraising that reached $11,309.52 — 282% of his $4,000 goal for the Children's Heart Foundation.

$11,310

How it works

  1. Set up AI agent 'Anthony' as a marathon coach
  2. Receive a weekly mileage plan starting at 10 miles
  3. Get check-in notifications
  4. Log progress in a Marathon Prep Tracker (8/10 to 10/10 miles)
  5. Use the AI to strategise fundraising, reaching $11,309.52 of a $4,000 goal

Why it’s worth knowing

It behaved like a standing coach: plans, nudges, a live tracker and fundraising strategy in one.
