My new book is finally ready for release!
Putting One Foot in Front of the Other – Lessons Learned in 30 Years of Running is a compilation of my thoughts on training, racing and finding ways to make your running better and more enjoyable. The book includes revised and expanded articles from this blog as well as some of my other writings on the subject of running over the past couple of years.
When I put this book together, I decided to focus on what, in corporate-speak, might be called the “soft-skills” of running. Things like building your confidence, mental toughness, dealing with rivals, race tactics and the like. You’ll also find sections on interval and hill training, dealing with injuries, and how to be at your best when you need it most.
The book is 78 pages and comes in both ebook and paperback versions.
Here are the Chapter Titles:
