This rather brief book is one of those where nothing is really wrong with it, but neither is there anything to really grab you. It is practical and sensible and provides sound advice. Switzer and her husband are both lifelong athletes and I think she falls short in motivating the non-lifelong athletes to join her.
Was a great book to help get started and to increase the amount of running. I will probably buy this book as is is a great reference book
