"Runner's World" Guide to Cross Training by Matt Fitzgerald

If you want to enjoy a long, successful life of running, it is essential to incorporate non-running activities into your training programme. In RUNNER'S WORLD GUIDE TO SCORSS TRAINING, Matt Fitzgerald - seasoned runner, triathlete, sports and fitness journalist, and online coach to runners and triathletes - tells you everything you need to know about, the very best cross-training exercises for runners, from the equipment you'll have to buy to the techniques you'll have to master. Strength exercises will keep your muscles in balance. Flexibility exercises will keep them supple and alternative endurance activities will help heal existing injuries while preventing future ones. Fitzgerald recommends the six best non-impact cardiovascular activities for runners: pool running, elliptical training, bicycling, inline skating, swimming, and cross-country skiing. The book shows how to integrate running and cross-training, and features five complete programs that will train you for a basic 10-K, advanced 10-K/half-marathon, basic marathon, advanced marathon, and triathlon. With the imprimatur of Runner's World magazine-the most authoritative source of information on the sport - this excellent guide will be welcomed by runners at every level.
