New York Times Best Seller

A world-class runner and four-time Olympian shares the life lessons he’s learned from each of the 26 marathons he’s run in his storied career.

“An athlete whose wisdom and lessons aren’t just for runners.” (The Washington Post)

When Meb Keflezighi - the first person in history to win both the Boston and New York City marathons as well as an Olympic marathon medal - ran his final marathon in New York City on November 5, 2017, it marked the end of an extraordinary distance-running career.

Meb's last marathon was also his 26th, and each of those marathons has come with its own unique challenges, rewards, and outcomes. In 26 Marathons, Meb takes listeners on those legendary races, along every hill, bend, and unexpected turn of events that made each marathon an exceptional learning experience, and a fascinating story.

26 Marathons offers the wisdom Meb has gleaned about life, family, identity, and faith in addition to tips about running, training, and nutrition. He shows runners of all levels how to apply the lessons he's learned to their own running and lives. Equal parts inspiration and practical advice, 26 Marathons provides an inside look at the life and success of one of the greatest runners living today.

Praise for 26 Marathons

“26 Marathons is a swift read, guaranteed to be popular with student athletes plus hard-core and recreational runners, who will undoubtedly agree that Meb is an American treasure and running ambassador who never fails to inspire.” (Booklist, starred review)

“26 Marathons gives great insight about the ups and downs in marathon running and how to cope with them. As Meb shows, dealing with these marathon experiences help us become better in our lives.” (Eliud Kipchoge, Marathon World Record Holder and 2016 Olympic Gold Medalist)

“Meb’s 26 Marathons is like opening a treasure chest full of inspiring stories that give behind-the-scenes glimpse into the mental and physical joys and obstacles that elite-level racing can bring. His advice on training, overcoming injuries, and adversity is for everyone. It’s pure gold!” (Shalane Flanagan, 2017 TCS NYC Marathon Champion)

Reseñas de la Crítica

“26 Marathons is a fantastic book. It tells the story of Meb Keflezighi’s career by documenting his marathons, but it’s not really about running. It’s about life! About setting goals and pursuing them, and how to continue to strive to excel in the midst of satisfaction and disappointments. Meb drives home the fact that winning in life isn’t defined by coming in first place. This book is not just for runners. It will help you no matter what your passion in life might be.” (Tony Dungy, Super Bowl Winning Coach, NFL Hall of Famer, and New York Times best-selling author)

"Keflezighi is a four-time Olympian who has won the Boston and New York marathons - so it’s fitting that his 2017 New York Marathon was not just his last, but his 26th. That’s one marathon race per marathon mile for an athlete whose wisdom and lessons aren’t just for runners.” (The Washington Post )

I not only enjoyed the book but felt Meb’s ‘voice’ and relished his wisdom while listening to it. The narrator did a pretty good job. Thanks, Meb! And thanks to your family too.
You’re an inspiration for all of us.

Meb takes us on a journey through 26 marathons sharing trials, triumphs and wisdom words. As an elite athlete, he has accomplished a lot yet remains humble and appreciative of other runners. That he stands at the finish line cheering other runners on is heart warming. One of my favorite reads and has motivated me to keep running. Highly recommended

Compassionate and Motivational

This is a good book if you follow Meb or are a weekend warrior into pro running.

It’s probably longer than needed, and the writing isn’t super compelling, but it’s a good diary of his life combined with a few corny bits.

Worth it, but not great

Such a great book. I am going to have to buy the paper version to go back and take notes, as there is so much great information. I usually let myself listen to music during the back half of a marathon to keep myself motivated, but during the Philly Marathon I decided to listen to the last chapters of Meb’s book instead. I hit the end of it at mile 24 and it left me with a perfect mindset to push hard to the finish.

Finished the last 1.5 hours of it while running a marathon
