Product Description

Book Description

Twenty-six-point-two miles never will seem so reachable a goal as it will when you read and use Marathon Training. The 15-week program and training diary will point you toward success, whether you want to run your first or fastest marathon. Joe Henderson will instruct, equip, inspire, inform and humor you through a training process that will maximize your potential and minimize your chances of injury. Each day you will receive a special training tip and instruction to aid your preparation. Take the guesswork out of your training. Marathon Training will help you go the distance better than you ever dreamed possible.

From the Publisher

"Like a great coach, Henderson helps aspiring marathoners plan their workouts and then shows up each day to monitor their progress and encourage their efforts. This book will be enjoyable and effective for anyone interested in running a successful marathon."

Don Kardong Senior Writer, Runner’s World Fourth Place, 1976 Olympic Marathon

"As marathon training programs go, this one is extraordinary. Henderson has designed a training guide for the regular guy or gal. His combination of objective, technical tips and more subjective daily thoughts creates inspiring lessons in the art of completing a marathon."

Fiona Bayly New York Road Runners Club Organizer of the NYC Marathon

5.0 out of 5 stars Sound advise, Feb 10 2004

This review is from: Marathon Training: The Proven 100-Day Program For Success (Paperback)
I have read and used Hendersons marathon training program with some success ( 3.06 in 1992 ). The first long run is not 14 miles but instead it is assumed that you have run a half marathon and have trained and adapted to running 12 miles prior to starting this program. The program is simple, yet it works. The book itself is vintage Henderson, a great read.

1.0 out of 5 stars This is not a training book, July 13 2003

This review is from: Marathon Training: The Proven 100-Day Program For Success (Paperback)
This book will not give you ideas on how to train for a marathon. Unless you are ready to run 12-14 miles this Saturday for your first long run it is not for you. The training guide show a 12-14 mile Saturday run the first week. Great advice for the beginners Joe.

This is a guide for you to fill out your miles as you run them not really a training program. It has very little substance on training and advice that is helpful to anyone getting ready for their first couple marathons.

The only good news is I bought it used on Amazon.com for $. If you want it you can have it for free, it will not help you. If you want a running diary to put your miles in their is a new thing called a calendar that you can put them in.

4.0 out of 5 stars I have successfully run three marathons following this book, Dec 15 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Marathon Training: The Proven 100-Day Program For Success (Paperback)
...and I am working on my fourth. I find the journal format to be very helpful, as well as the weekly workout assignments, articles, tips and recommendations. The three different training plans make this workable for different levels of runners. Although this book might not be ideal for an absolute beginner, it is a good one for the average runner who wants a simple, realistic way to prepare for a marathon without having to turn his or her life over to training.
