26 Marathons: What I Learned About Faith, Identity, Running, and Life from My Marathon Career

NEW YORK TIMESÂ BESTSELLER â€¢Â A world-class runner and four-time Olympian shares the life lessons heâ€™s learned from each of the twenty-six marathons heâ€™s run in his storied career.Â

â€œAn athlete whose wisdom and lessons arenâ€™t just for runners.â€â€”The Washington Post

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

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

26 MarathonsÂ 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,Â 26 MarathonsÂ provides an inside look at the life and success of one of the greatest runners living today.

His advice on training, overcoming injuries, and adversity is for everyone. Itâ€™s pure gold!â€â€”Shalane Flanagan,Â 2017 TCS NYC Marathon Champion
