Ultramarathon Man is the story of where it all began for Dean
Karnazes: the mind-boggling adventures of his nonstop treks through
the shoe-melting inferno of Death Valley, the lung-freezing
ferocity of the South Pole, and the awe-inspiring beauty of the
towering peaks and craggy canyons of the Sierra Nevada. With an
insight and candour rarely seen in sports memoirs, he uncovers how
he merges the solitary, manic, self-absorbed life of hard-core
ultrarunning with a full-time job, a wife and two children, and how
running has made him who he is today: a man with an ironclad body,
a teenager's energy and a champion's wisdom. In this updated and
revised edition of the sportswriting classic, Karnazes has added an
afterword full of lessons learned. He gives personal details on the
essential pillars of health - fitness, diet and sleep. What does he
eat, what supplements does he take, what kind of mattress does he
sleep on? Ageing well takes work and the man who hasn't stopped for
three decades is now sharing the tips and learnings that have
helped him keep going, mile after gruelling mile.
