¿¿IPPY Book Awards 2022 Gold Medal Winner & Indie Book Awards 2022 FinalistIrish Runner Magazine - 'A must-read for 2022.'Dean Karnazes, New York Times best-selling author and ultra-runner - 'An intimate and uplifting story of grit, tenacity and healing and one that is sure to stir the soul.'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. Alan Corcoran's response to the shock of his dad's stroke was to get active, create positive from negative and raise money for charity. Alan faced many obstacles in life and along the gruelling 1,500-kilometre road around Ireland's coast. He candidly submerges the reader into his world with an endearing, light Irish touch, showing how you can achieve your objectives through sheer perseverance.
Autoren-Porträt von Alan Corcoran
Alan Corcoran is a charity fundraising Irish adventure athlete. Competing as an Irish international track and field athlete as a juvenile, he switched to ultra-endurance at the age of 20, when his dad suffered a stroke. Alan has since fundraised ¿45,000 for stroke and cancer charities through his resilience challenges. Alan became the first person to run a lap of Ireland - 35 marathons in 35 consecutive days - and the first person to swim the length of Ireland - a 500-kilometre sea swim - on his second attempt. He's written an award-winning book ('Marathon Man') and created a feature-length documentary film ('Unsinkable') about these two challenges.
