Customer Review: Training
If you are serious about running a marathon this book is very helpful. I may not have won anything but I did enter and finish.
Customer Review: Too simplistic..
Don’t waste your time on this book, even for 1st timers this stuff is old and out of date. Get Jeff Galloway’s Marathon instead.

Marathon! shows how just about anyone can run a marathon and, given the right attitude and training, finish the race. Galloway has designed a low-mileage marathon training program that has been used by over 10,000 people with a 98 percent success rate. The book includes the latest information on workouts, form innovations, pace charts, prediction tables, and motivation strategies.

Customer Review: Marathon, You Can Do It, great book!
I used this book to run my first marathon at the age of 50 in 2006 and successfully completed the marathon injury free. I bought two more copies for my daughters and we are going to run the Yakima, WA marathon together, this being a first time for them. I highly reccommend this book for anyone considerning a marathon. Success will be yours if you follow the training guides in the book.
Customer Review: Superb, Informative, and Practical
I am an author myself and first i must say that this is a well written and thorough book. I am training for my first marathon and absolutely love Jeff’s training plan and the Run/Walk strategy. It keeps me fit, motivated, healthy, and looking forward to my marathon. Thanks Jeff. Highly recommended for anyone interested in running.
