I stumbled out of a bar… drunk, and decided to run 30 miles that night to celebrate my 30th birthday!ĬS: Was this the drunken tequila run that I have read about? DK: (laughing) Yes… I stumbled out of a bar… drunk, I will admit (!) and decided to run 30 miles that night to celebrate my 30th birthday!ĬS: You are remarkable in that your body can cope with such intensity.
(Karnazes is now 48 years old) I was out celebrating and drinking too much tequila, and I just decided to go for a little run!ĬS: So after a spontaneous 30 miles, what came next? DK: Next, I ran a 50 mile race and within less than a year I had run a 100 mile race. The turning point came on my 30th birthday. If ever an advert for running was needed this man is it! CS: So, how did you become UltraMarathon man? Have you always been a runner? DK: I was always active and I loved to surf, but hadn’t run for 15 years and was a bit out of shape cardiovascular-wise. Met Karnazes on a typical drizzly London day and the first thing that struck me was his aura: This man literally glows! You would notice him from across the street - although not particularly tall or unusual looking, he stands out from the masses with a super-defined body, tight, glowing tanned skin, bright eyes and radiant health.
Dean Karnazes aka ‘Ultra-Marathon Man’ is an extraordinary human being, having run the deserts of the world, run 350 miles across Australia, swam the San Francisco Bay and ran across America!
