Whether you are a true beginner, a recreational runner, or a competitive racer, this book has everything you need to start, continue, and excel—and to reap the rewards of health, fitness, and well–being. Annemarie Jutel, a registered nurse, is one of New Zealand’s top–ten runners and a pioneer in women’s distance running.
