Advanced praise for Dean Karnazes and his book,
ULTRAMARATHON MAN:
CONFESSIONS OF AN ALL-NIGHT RUNNER

“This running memoir (written without a co-author) paints the picture of an insanely dedicated - some may say just plain insane - athlete. [But Dean’s] masochism is the reader’s pleasure.”
--Publishers Weekly

“Charming and surprisingly quirky, providing the perfect escapist fantasy for couch potatoes and weekend warriors alike.”
--Kirkus Reviews

“Hook up some jumper cables to Dean Karnazes’ will power, and you could probably light a small California town.”
--San Francisco Chronicle

“The ultimate ultrarunning specimen.”
--Runner’s World

“One of the AMAZING BODIES OF THE YEAR.”
--GQ

“2004 Ultrarunner of the Year.”
--Competitor Magazine

“This book will cause the jaws of even navy SEALs to drop and remind everyone of what it feels like to be truly alive.”
--Sam Fussell, author of Muscle

“The Quintessential Ultramarathoner”
--Outside Magazine
