Maggiori informazioni sul libro

In SPORTaktiv, one of Austria's largest sports magazines, my global athletic journey began with a surprising statement from the editor in chief. Initially, I felt disappointed by his reaction, which mirrored the astonishment I often see during my keynote speeches, often followed by the bewildered question: "This is – you?!" The clash between expectations and reality is striking. Many cannot believe that Thomas Taut from Vienna has achieved running seven full marathons on seven continents in just seven days. People typically envision winners as young, athletic, and strong, unlike my appearance as an extreme athlete—older, slightly overweight, and dealing with allergic asthma. Yet, I am the one who conquered the World Marathon Challenge, the only one from Austria to do so. This discrepancy challenges prejudices and invites openness to my story, which can inspire others to tap into their inner potential. Though I started running at 35 and have never won a race, my motto is "Not fast – not last!" I've pursued extreme sports with determination. At 53, I've achieved recognition alongside top athletes like Vanessa Herzog and Marcel Hirscher, both of whom have published works with the same company as mine. My journey is about passion, perseverance, and the incredible experiences that have enriched my life. Join me on this extraordinary adventure!
