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Don’t waste your time on this book, even for 1st timers this stuff is old and out of date.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.
