4.0 out of 5 stars An informative training guide
This is one of the great books revealing how different African runners from those in western countries in terms of physical attributes and training methods. Generally, the book itself provides information that would inspire those who try to train themselves to perform well in competitions. It has also examples of training schedules that great Kenyan runners would follow...

2.0 out of 5 stars Misleading title, April 16, 2009
This review is from: Run to Win: The Training Secrets of the Kenyan Runners (Paperback)
A very disappointing book. It simply doesn't live up to its title. There is some interesting history, about Kenya in general and about individual runners and coaches. But "training secrets"? Forget it.

Generally, the book itself provides information that would inspire those who try to train themselves to perform well in competitions. It has also examples of training schedules that great Kenyan runners would follow during competition season. They are indeed interesting for us to know about.
