3.0 out of 5 stars Unimpressive, May 13, 2000
This review is from: Track: Championship Running (Sports Illustrated Winner's Circle Books) (Paperback)
Outside of a new track coach, few will find value in "Track: Championship Running." Sports Illustrated has demonstrated it knows little about track and field.

Hurumph and grumble.

I had hoped to find some in-depth, seasoned veteran type of information. SP is generally aware of what makes an athlete tick, and good training is where it starts. Instead, I feel like I was reading encylopedia entries: A little info, enough to let me know a given event requires good form... but they tried to pack too much into too few pages. Good pictures (though they look dated), indicating proper form, but not much else.

What could be that one book covering all track events resulted in being that book which sounds like a high school student's senior report.

SP: Go back, add 300 more pages, equally divided among the track events, and publish it. Otherwise, don't waste the paper.
