Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Nutrition for Sport and Exercise (Hardcover)
A great reference for people looking to get more out of their endurance activity performance. A few changes in what I eat helped me to have the energy to take 5 minutes off my time at the 10-mile mark in races one week apart. i believe eating and resting better contributed to a great double weekend - 20miler on Sat and a half marathon on Sun!
