This is mostly fluff. One hundred and fifty pages of feel good stuff before it gets to a running plan. I’m really not interested in running while pregnant or choosing the right stroller! Cameo’s of runners take up about twenty five percent of the book. Again there’s really no meat on the subject. Maybe it was my mistake thinking there would be more here,it does say BEGINNING, but the book suggests you are an absolute novice to running and maybe life in general.

I should start off by saying the book acknowledges it is for beginning runners. However, the book is 168 pages long and the program starts on page 133. The first 133 pages discuss various subjects and gives advice. The advice includes, “your feet should point straight forward and ahead,” and, “focus on what feels good and not what hurts.” The book could have been 25 pages and contained everything it now has that is worth knowing.

This book is truly for the new runner who would like to get started and find their place/niche. As with everything, moderation is key so should you stay on the suggested path, I am sure you will succeed.
Good Luck!

This book is not for an absolute beginner. I’ve been looking for books that were geared towards the beginning runner and this is not one of them. The author assumes that the reader has some knowledge of running. There’s very little mention about running in hot and cold weather, nutrition, goal setting, how to avoid injury or pacing. If you’ve never ran before, I don’t recommend this book at all. It’s a great book, just not for a beginner. Try “Runner’s world complete book of running”
