Michele Graglia left Italy for Miami in 2007 to expand the family business. Caught in a thunderstorm, he ducked into a Johnny Rockets, got scouted by a renowned agent, and walked out a professional model. An elite modeling career brought expensive cars, penthouses, parties, and celebrities, but his accidental “American Dream” was never his own. Feeling the emptiness of a shallow, dark lifestyle, Michele set out for adventure and fulfillment, finding it in the unlikeliest place—a book about ultramarathon running.

It is an ok book. I am a serious ultra runner and have listened to just about any book on audible about Marathons or Ultras. This book is not bad but I have listened to many that I found better. He spends a lot of time talking about his philosophy on life (mine is very different). I found a lot of what he says about running to be very cliché, and often said better other places. I did not find it to be inspiring. A few of his personal running stories are ok and he is a very good runner.

Marathon Man is an uplifting story of an extraordinary achievement - all the more inspiring given that the author was an inexperienced long-distance runner and only 20 when embarking on his mission to run 35 marathons in 35 consecutive days.

I am halfway through the book and its still on his life and his families life. The only thing about running around Ireland and doing 35 marathons in 35 days that it's mentioned is that he thought it would be a neat goal and kept it to him self. No planning of the event, no break down of the event, nothing.
From the description I thought the book would focus most of the story around doing 35 marathons in 35 days. If I did not know this from the description, I would not even realize he did this at the 1/2 way point.
