Publisher Description
Ultrarunning legend Dean Karnazes has run 262 miles - the equivalent of ten marathons - without rest. He has run over mountains, across Death Valley, to the South Pole, and is probably the first person to eat an entire pizza while running. With an insight, candour and humour rarely seen in sports memoirs, Ultramarathon Man has inspired tens of thousands of people - nonrunners and runners alike - to push themselves beyond their comfort zones and simply get out there and run.
Ultramarathon Man answers the questions Karnazes is continually asked:
- Why do you do it?
- How do you do it?
- Are you insane?
and the follow-up queries:
- What, exactly, do you eat?
- How do you train to stay in such good shape?

Loved it
I was suggested a youtube video featuring Dean at 3 am when I was up sick. I bought his book the next morning and I’ve been inspired ever since! Dean is so down to earth, funny, humble and I obviously hardworking and ambitious. Thank you Dean for your insight. The farthest I’ve ran is about 6 km but Im determined to run a marathon next year! Thank you from Scotland
