Synopsis

Now in a completely revised second edition, with more essential charts and training schedules than any other runner's diary

Developed by the universally respected coaching duo that produced the bestselling Runner's Handbook and Competitive Runner's Handbook, this must-have guide has been a runners' favorite for years. Now completely revised, it combines an attractive week-by-week diary with lots of room for notes, plus all the helpful information runners need at their fingertips: expanded and updated pacing charts with minutes per mile and per kilometer; revised training schedules for beginners, competitors, and all levels of marathoners; useful charts on fuel and hydration; treadmill, heart-rate, and cross-training tables; and much more. Designed by the authors as their "dream" diary, this is the diary that a runner will buy every year to track their running regimen.

About this title

From the Author:

I use it myself several times each day!
We sell out the diary faster than we can stock them at our classes and at the New York Road Runners Club. It is really two books in one. Besides serving as an easy-to-use place to record your daily and weekly training, as well as your key speed workouts, long runs and races, it is a handy reference source. I refer to the charts for training paces, speed training and age-adjusted race prediction and scoring often. Lots of runners like using the sample 16-week marathon schedules since they are easy to flip to in the spiral-bound diary. This is my dream diary. It includes everything I've always wanted in a diary in my 30+ years of running.
