Fat Man to Green Man: From Unfit to Ultramarathon

Fat Man to Green Man: From Unfit to Ultramarathon


Despite believing he was bionic as a child, Ira Rainey was far from an elite athlete with superhuman running abilities like the ones he read about in books. He was in fact an overweight and unfit slacker who felt a bit sorry for himself because he had sore feet.

Sure he ran a bit, but he also sat around a lot and ate and drank too much. Why? Because he could, and because he was a delusional optimist who thought everything would always be just fine.

That was until a friend was diagnosed with terminal cancer and given months to live. It was an event that would push Ira to tackle his apathy towards life and take on the challenge of becoming an ultramarathon runner, pushing himself to go further than he had ever gone before.

Fat Man to Green Man is a warm and humorous account of one man’s quest to uncover his true super powers as he journeys from fat to fit and covering everything that came between the two.

“The Badwater Ultramarathon, ‘the world’s toughest footrace,; is a race of near-mythical status in the world of extreme running.” Sydney Morning Herald


The Tempo 5 pack transforms you into a trail-devouring animal, with the ability to carry protective layers, water and food for long-distance runs lasting up to four hours. Multiple external pockets positioned for easy access allow you to refuel without breaking stride and two zippered compartments store larger items for changing trail and weather conditions. Wraptor stabilization and a hydration sleeve with built-in remote, on-the-go compression keep slosh and shifting to a minimum, so you can rack up mileage with the ease of an antelope.

Ultramarathon Man: Confessions of an All-Night Runner


In one of his most ambitious physical efforts to date, Dean Karnazes attempted to run 50 marathons, in 50 states, in 50 days to raise awareness of youth obesity and urge Americans of all fitness levels to “take that next step.”

“UltraMarathon Man: 50 Marathons – 50 States – 50 Days”, a Journeyfilm documentary, follows Dean’s incredible step-by-step journey across the country.
