5.0 out of 5 stars The most helpful running book ever!, April 21, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Open Road's The Smart Runner's Handbook (Paperback)
I picked up this book on a whim, and have found it to be the most helpful, inspirational book on running ever. I am 3 months pregnant and the information for pregnant women was unparalleled. I highly recommend this book for anyone though. The information is useful, the book is concise and the tone is enjoyable. Two thumbs up!

5.0 out of 5 stars Open Road's The Smart Runner's Handbook, April 20, 2002
By 
Dawn Riviere (Central California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Open Road's The Smart Runner's Handbook (Paperback)
This book helped me train for my first marathon in 1997... and several after. It provides three suggested-training schedules, depending on goals and training level, for 10K & marathons. Easy to follow, easy to read. Excellent starting point for new runners. Have read other books by "more famous" authors, but none of their suggested training schedules gave me the confidence I obtained by using this book. (Qualified for Boston every time!!) Future editions could be improved by adding a chapter on recovery following the marathon.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well-written guide for needy runners, even fat ones., April 28, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Open Road's The Smart Runner's Handbook (Paperback)
I've been running for a few years to keep the fat off my hips and was pleased to stumble across this great running guide. I must say that i had been doing quite a bit wrong. Now that i've read this book, I've lost even more weight and am just lucky that the writer didn't charge by the pound.
