Just had to follow up — this is really a great book on lots of levels — not just for marathoners. Though, by the end, non-marathoners just might change their mind and commit to one I loved the chapter on motivation and I just posted about the section on his observations about people who’ve used running to lose a bunch of weight. Good stuff!

I met Dean right after he did his 50 in 50. He stayed overnight in the campground where I work; he was running home (to CA from NY.) Unbelieveably, at the time I hadn’t even heard of him. Here’s the story: http://tinyurl.com/4ecddh

He was very friendly and gracious. Even though I’d been hiding under a rock.

Glad to hear you are back on your game. I think I’m going to shoot for 10K this week as well – of course, that will be a personal best – nowhere near 23K – but it is progress! Thank you for the inspiration!

Today I have stumbled upon video with Will Smith saying that running is key to the life.

50 MARATHONS IN 50 DAYS?? Ohh my God. He needs to get some kind of an award of something. That is absolutely excellent.

Congrats to you mate. Hope you never get to see that ‘weird run’ again.

Glad today was better! I just saw that book and am intrigued. I need to read it! I'm up to briskly walking about a 10k a day, and I have to say, it's got my mood and energy up, up, up!
