Advanced Marathoning, Third Edition, has all the information competitive runners need to train smarter, remain injury-free and run their best marathon.
"One of the most comprehensive and trusted resources for marathoners" --Runner's World "The third edition of Advanced Marathoning offers the latest information for optimizing performance. If you are preparing for a marathon, this is the book for you!" --Meb Keflezighi, Olympic Silver Medalist and Boston and New York City Marathon Champion "Advanced Marathoning provides a focused purpose every day so that you get to race day fit enough, rested enough, and healthy enough to have a great experience." --Molly Huddle, Two-Time Olympian, 2:26 Marathoner, and U.S. Record Holder in the 10K and Half Marathon "This is the book that taught me the science and training necessary to run faster marathons. It's clear, smart, precise, and full of terrific advice. My first edition is full of scribbles, underlines, and notes, marking a progression from 3:18 to 3:06 to 2:43--and, more important, to a true love of the sport. This edition is even better. Read it and run." --Nicholas Thompson, Editor in Chief of Wired "I've been referencing Advanced Marathoning since I first entered the marathon scene in 2013. Several buildups and top 10 finishes later, it's still the book I turn to for research- and experience-backed information about pacing, tapering, fueling, stretching, and more. Advanced Marathoning is a comprehensive and essential resource for anyone wishing to find their potential over 26.2 miles." --Becky Wade, 2:30 Marathoner and Author of Run the World
