Sinopse

"The best running books have character, an amazing tale and passion. This ticks all those boxes and more." (Trail Running Magazine)

"A must-read for 2022." (Irish Runner Magazine)

"An intimate and uplifting story of grit, tenacity and healing and one that is sure to stir the soul." (Dean Karnazes)

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. After an introduction to Corcoran's Irish upbringing, he responds to the shock of his dad's stroke, by getting active, creating positive from negative and raising money for charity. Alan faced many obstacles along the road - beyond the sheer physical endurance challenge of running 1,500 kilometres around Ireland's coast. He candidly submerges the listener into his world with an endearingly light touch, showing how through sheer perseverance, you can achieve your objectives. Alan's Irish humour, positivity, and pure determination shine through this new sports memoir. Whatever your challenge, this motivational story will show you that you can succeed.

"...a timely reminder that life is to be seized." (Irish Independent)

"A charming, detailed running account that should appeal to fans of endurance stories...sense of humour throughout." (Kirkus Reviews)

"Alan Corcoran's book is definitely different...engaging...refreshing." (Reedsy - 5/5)

"An inspirational tale." (Athletics Weekly)

"For runners and non-runners alike...a well-structured and well-edited memoir written with an admirable level of openness and honesty...touching, meaningful and cautionary tale." (Indie Reader, 4.5/5)

"Bravo!" (Eddie Jordan OBE)

"Inspiration for anyone to raise the bar on their own fitness goals." (Men's Fitness Magazine)
