The Running Mann

I am Stuart Mann.

* Professional Lean-Agile Coach and Unprofessional Athlete (and like writing about both).
* Compulsive marathon runner (over 160 marathons and ultras completed).
* Experienced joker and mischief maker.
* Father (2 gorgeous girls), husband (1 gorgeous wife) and Trainee Feminist.

Current Running Goal: Complete #100UniqueMarathons

Stretch Goal: Complete every marathon and ultra in South Africa

Pipe Dream (some people call this a vision): Earn enough blog readers and social media followers to:
(1) Have costs covered to run marathons and write about the experience (selfish goal).
(2) Use as a platform to raise money for educational charities in South Africa (altruistic goal)

International runners: If you’re planning to visit South Africa and want info on SA marathons, I’m happy to answer your questions. There are great marathon options all year round – I’ve run most of them and would love to help you run a marathon in our beautiful country.
