This accessible, upbeat manual, aimed at both élite athletes and the `runner in the street', will enable runners to maximize their personal running potential and increase their enjoyment in their sport. It includes discussion of the factors which limit running performance (such as muscle power, oxygen uptake, age, gender, environmental circumstances and nutrition) and shows how, through appropriate and personalised training programmes aimed at both body and mind, these limitations can be transformed into targets and challenges.
