Running Manual
A complete step-by-step guide
The Running Manual contains everything there is to know about the most popular way to get fit, with advice that can be applied to many forms of exercise. It takes the reader through all the necessary stages in order to reap the rewards of a good run, whether running outdoors or on a treadmill.
With chapters on sprinting, marathons, gait analysis, training, nutrition, equipment, injuries and rehab, the Running Manual is every runner’s one stop shop.
It even includes a chapter on barefoot running, which weighs up the pros and cons of this new way to get fit and feel free. Exploring whether we should learn from our ancestors as forefoot runners and negate the need for traditional trainers or whether we’ve evolved to rely on shoes and that’s where we should stay.
Lavishly illustrated with great colour photos and diagrams throughout, the Running Manual is the how-to guide that will appeal to all levels, whether young or old, new or experienced, male or female.
