To be like Dean.: Funny article by a local writer whose daughter goes to school with the daughter of Dean Karnazes, ultramarathoner. I'm wondering if I can snag an interview with Mr. Karnazes.

Here's a link to Dean's site, ultramarathonman.com, just in case you were looking for more details.

And if we can't get an interview, there's a crackup interview with Letterman on his site, too.

Maybe he could run with Ben to the South Pole? Cup - what is it with you and long distances? :)

I think it's the pushing of one's limits in extreme conditions, and the inspiring and humorous stories that come out of it. It's just extraordinary.

In that Letterman interview, for instance, Dean sez "I'm not very fast, I can just do it for a long time." That got Letterman and the audience laughing for awhile. And it was only one of a number of funny quips and stories in that interview.
