    Informative and well written guide for all runners

    John Bingham and Jenny Hadfield have made a masterpiece book that understands the psychology and mechanics of running. I found the runner's checklist a great tool for anyone considering becoming a runner by striking at the real goals your looking to achieve. The book is designed for the person considering running to the accomplished runner.
