5.0 out of 5 stars Literally everything you need, July 2, 2002

I wanted to write a review to applaud this book and it's author. Of all of the running and fitness books I have experienced, this book is the one of the only books to achieve putting the entire picture together. It not only gives you the accurate and entire picture, Art Liberman does it in a way that is easy to read and follow. He is one of the only authors to communicate worth-while information in a manner that will keep you reading the book. I attribute its ease of reading and thouroughness to my success as a "budding" runner. This is a keeper.

5.0 out of 5 stars Motivational!!, May 16, 2002

This review is from: The Everything Running Book: From Circling the Block to Completing a Marathon, Tricks and Tips to Make You a Better Runner (Everything (Sports & Fitness)) (Paperback)

As parents of 2 daughters who have been runners all through school and now on their own, we have traveled many thousands of miles to watch and be there for them. Not once did we ever think about joining them. We bought this book and we really realized that even though we are upper middle-age, we can start a running program. This book is such an inspiration to us! It starts us off slow as beginners and makes us realize we don't have to be fast or win to enjoy the sport of running. Right now, we are just run-walking, like Art Liberman suggests to get into the mode. We are entering a 10k in June and anxious to participate and not just walk like we have other years.Great book for the beginner of any kind of running! Love It!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Very reader-friendly, informative, and interesting!, June 14, 2004

I recently started running this year, and I'm very thankful that I picked up this particular book. The author is an experienced marathon runner and has his own personal marathon website online as well. This book was very informative and interesting! The topics range from beginning runners to marathon runners, cross-training to advanced running/training, extreme weather running to running shoes/equipment. The book is very reader-friendly and reads very quickly. This book is probably better suited for beginning/intermediate runners, as it provides more info about getting into running and starting a running regimen, along with motivation and training advice. Yet, it's one of my favorite running books so far, and is helping me train for my first 1/2 marathon!
