Advanced Marathoning Paperback – July 19, 2019

Great guidance. I trained myself following the reference in the book and I got a new PR in My 2nd Marathon

I used the 55-70 mile plan to train for both a Boston qualifier and then Boston. I ended up with a solid PR of 3:13 at age 52 at Boston. I think the book's information/explanation and training plans are excellent and will put you in a very good place on race day. My experience is that some of the speed work is difficult to hit in training... for example, I usually failed to be able to do the marathon pace runs at marathon pace, but tried to simply do them a little faster than usual. All in all though, this was exactly the book I needed to take my training and racing up a notch. Highly recommended.

I like the heavier mileage in the plans. Author explains physiology reasons for each type of workout. My trading has stepped up injury free!

Great introduction to the art and science of distance running and a blueprint for a competitive marathon. Will look forward to seeing how well it pays off over the next weeks and months.

A must read for every marathon runner! Much practical insight and detailed illustration are included throughout the book.Definitely recommend.

Reading this helped guide me to a marathon PR of 2:45 from 3:21. I still find myself going back to this book for reference.This book was basically my coach. Great purchase!

I have two marathons coming up just 7 weeks apart. While looking for training and racing advice for the short turnaround, I came across this book because it had a chapter dedicated to the quick turnaround. I ended up reading the whole book in a weekend. While most of the information repeated what I had learned in other books/research, this book does a great job breaking it down, making the science behind marathon training and racing easily accessible and relevant for every level of runner, from the beginner to the elite.

Really great book and what I think is a must have for any marathoner. If there are 2 books that are a must have for long distance runners, it is this one and Daniel’s Running Formula book.
