About this listen

Michele Graglia left Italy for Miami in 2007 to expand the family business. Caught in a thunderstorm, he ducked into a Johnny Rockets, got scouted by a renowned agent, and walked out a professional model.

An elite modeling career brought expensive cars, penthouses, parties, and celebrities, but his accidental “American Dream” was never his own.

Feeling the emptiness of a shallow, dark lifestyle, Michele set out for adventure and fulfillment, finding it in the unlikeliest place—a book about ultramarathon running.

Within a few short years, his passion and dedication for ultrarunning placed him among the top endurance athletes in the world. Running hundreds of miles in the extremes of the frozen Yukon and the scorching heat of Death Valley, he pushed his body and mind beyond every limit imaginable.

Ultra is not about winning. It’s not about running. It’s a means to return to nature and a journey to find your purpose, giving your all on the quest for your best self.

Fantastic read

An absorbing and honest account of Michele's journey. It transitions from his modelling career and the lifestyle that went with it to becoming a top ultra runner with the dedication and fortitude required for that. Highly recommended.

A Beautiful Thought Provoking Story

Wow!

Michele’s life has been unconventional, however, it shows that anything can happen to anyone at any moment.

His honesty is humbling, and the journey of life Michele’s been on, is a tale everyone should experience.
