Even if you aren't angling to run a marathon (or run anything for that matter), Dean's got a lot to say on getting and staying motivated no matter what you're up against. He's also quite simply a very nice man, one of life's winners who's a good guy as well. Check out Dean's website www.ultramarathonman.com
