Unlike track racing, which is dominated by elite competitive athletes, marathon running is truly democratic, attracting every category of participant, from fun runner to international racer, from charity fundraiser to club runner, from teenager to octogenarian.
This book, prepared by the Peak Performance team of expert writers on training, conditioning, nutrition, injury and performance, is designed to appeal to people across that entire spectrum of ability and commitment.
It carries advice-packed articles on muscle training (don’t ignore your fast-twitch fibres), warm-ups (out with stretching, in with sport-specific drills), hydration (beat fluid loss with the aid of glycerol) and recovery.
We hope you enjoy this book and find it helpful in your preparation for this most grueling yet rewarding of endurance events.
