Marathon Training

This small-trim 'For Dummies' guide shows first time marathoners how to realise their dreams and helps veteran marathoners shave minutes off their time. The book presents a complete marathon training program, offering savvy advice on nutrition, hydration, stretching, injury prevention, mental preparation, and other issues that are keys to success. And because marathons are so demanding - even experienced marathoners can't run more than a few a year, the book also offers training tips for half-marathons and other distance events.
