'The Complete Book of Running for Women' is exactly that, a resource for women that tells them everything they need to know about running. Told in an authoritative but friendly voice, Claire Kowalchik addresses all of women's running concerns: such as why men run faster than women; how to increase mileage; why women are prone to certain injuries; what to wear (from sports bras to sneakers); how to maintain motivation; the best diet for women runners; running and menopause and much more.
The information is gathered from experts - coaches, exercise physiologists, nutritionists, medical doctors and gynecologists, orthopedics, podiatrists and women runners themselves. The book is organized in many short chapters with illustrations and charts where appropriate. It also includes inspirational quotes, tips and Q &A's.
