5.0 out of 5 stars Superb for beginners and up to 30 miles per week, September 3, 2004
By D. Holt (Santa Barbara, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
David Holt gives you motivation, time finding and how to begin a training program, and shows you how to progress at a painless pace for gradual improvement for life instead of for just one month before you give up.
Includes cross training for injury prevention or to lose weight before running; nutrition advice, stretching and numerous programs at 12 to 30 miles per week, at all intensities from leisurely jogging to fast 5K races on modest mileage and only 4 runs per week.

1.0 out of 5 stars Great ideas, not well organized., November 27, 2005
While this author clearly has ample knowledge about running and training, I found his book to lack flow, clarity, and straighforward training tips. Many chapters referred to other chapters and it was difficult to comprehend much of his writing. Perhaps a more experienced runner will find the book more helpful and clear.
