Marathon Man Book
Readers Favorite, BIBA, IPPY, and ABF Book Award Winner
MARATHON MAN is an uplifting story of an extraordinary achievement – even 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 a charming, light Irish touch, showing how you can achieve your objectives through sheer perseverance.
