Advanced Marathoning
Run faster marathons with hard-core, scientific training! Commitment and
hard work are essential, but successful marathoning also takes intelligent
preparation. Advanced Marathoning contains all the information you'll
need to run faster, peak for multiple marathons without injury, and meet your
marathon goal-whether it's running a personal best, qualifying for the Boston
Marathon, or winning your age division.
If you are willing to put in the work necessary to
run faster, Advanced Marathoning
will show you how to train efficiently and effectively to meet your goals with both single- and multiple- marathon programs presented in clear, weekly schedules. If you are ready to do more than simply finish a marathon, this book is for you.
