5.0 out of 5 stars Practical Guide to Training to be the best!, May 14, 2000

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Run With the Best (Paperback)
Irv Ray and Tony Benson are two extremely successful coaches and students of the sport, yet they do not allow their expertise to disrupt wiht scholarly and technical jargon what is an easily read and understood text on how to train and race your best.

Geared more to the coach, yet applicaple to the athlete, Run With The Best breaks down the training-racing-peaking process into the steps one must take in order to improve as a runner. None of it is theory, it is all time-tested, scientific and proven ... the results of the runners who have trained under Benson's and Ray's tutelage stand as testimony. The book is full of charts and text that explains what it is you are looking at in chart form and it also includes numerous examples of the workouts that fall within the framework of their training system.

I have used the training system with my runners at the high school level and I have found the principles to be successful regardless of the talent level of the athlete. Improvement comes to any runner willing to follow the model set forth in the book.

Highly recommended for anyone seeking a practical and proven method of training successful runners.
