Book Description | From the experts at the Furman Institute of Running and Scientific Training (FIRST), Runner's World Train Smart, Run Forever goes beyond traditional training programs and addresses the types of issues that prevent runners from reaching their full potential.

Bill Pierce and Scott Murr warn runners of the downsides of just running and neglecting overall fitness, as total body health is essential to achieve longevity as a runner.Runner's World Train Smart, Run Forever is appropriate for all runners, especially aging runners who struggle with getting slower and committed runners who find that their dedicated efforts often lead to injury. It addresses the controversies surrounding the dangers of over training and the stress associated with the constant craving for faster race times. The book culminates in a comprehensive program to enhance overall fitness, improve race times, and support healthy aging. |
