Finding Ultra, Ultramarathon Man, Born To Run 3 Books Collection Set. Description: Finding Ultra On the eve of his 40th birthday, Rich Roll was in bad shape. His days were filled with work, stress, and junk food, and his nights were spent on the couch, remote in hand. Taking out the trash was the closest he came to exercise, and, at 50 pounds overweight, a walk up the stairs left him winded. He decided it was time to make a change. After undergoing a diet detox, adopting a vegan lifestyle, and pushing his fitness regimen to undreamed-of heights, he was profiled by Men's Fitness as one of the world's 25 fittest men. Among Roll's many jaw-dropping athletic feats: he completed the unprecedented "Epic 5"--five back-to-back Ironman-distance triathlons on five different Hawaiian islands in under a week--an achievement many said was impossible. Ultramarathon Man Ultrarunning legend Dean Karnazes has run 262 miles - the equivalent of ten marathons - without rest. He has run over mountains, across Death Valley, to the South Pole, and is probably the first person to eat an entire pizza while running. With an insight, candour and humour rarely seen in sports memoirs, Ultramarathon Man has inspired tens of thousands of people - nonrunners and runners alike - to push themselves beyond their comfort zones and simply get out there and run. Born to Run At the heart of Born to Run lies a mysterious tribe of Mexican Indians, the Tarahumara, who live quietly in canyons and are reputed to be the best distance runners in the world; in 1993, one of them, aged 57, came first in a prestigious 100-mile race wearing a toga and sandals. A small group of the world's top ultra-runners (and the awe-inspiring author) make the treacherous journey into the canyons to try to learn the tribe's secrets and then take them on over a course 50 miles long.
Central to his ongoing quest to unlock his best self, Rich has spent the last eight years convening with unique thinkers in medicine, business, human performance, spirituality, and the arts, broadcasting the enduring wisdom of this guests through his acclaimed podcast. Each conversation is a long-form deep dive shepherded by Rich’s insatiable curiosity and earnest quest for universal truths, life lessons, and the enduring inspiration that we can all benefit from. Voicing Change is a highlight reel of some of the weekly magic that transpires between one of the podcast medium’s most influential hosts and today’s most accomplished—or sometimes most cutting edge—minds and personalities.

La sera prima di compiere quarant'anni, Rich Roll vide riflessa nello specchio la terribile profezia di quello che sarebbe stato il suo futuro. Venticinque chili sovrappeso, non riusciva a salire le scale senza fermarsi a riprendere fiato. Comprese dove lo stava trascinando il suo stile di vita, e decise di svegliarsi.
