I saw one of Izzard's early standup shows, and I saw him in various movies and television shows (The Riches was slightly jarring at first because that was the first time saw him performing in "boy-mode". I completely forgot he was in Mystery Men until it was mentioned in the book.
As for the book, it was not the most compelling read, but enjoyable, and while he did not go out of his way to be funny, one can see his comic style throughout, so it was not entirely ghost-written, at least.
The most amazing thing to me, I think, is that he ran so many marathons, one right after the other. I have done 5k and 10k runs, but I certainly haven't done more than one in a year, LOL.
