Ultramarathon Man

Confessions of an All-Night Runner

De: Dean Karnazes

Narrado por: Michael Braun

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?
