I recently purchased this book to look for a different method of run training to mix my training up a bit this year. I read the overview of the book and was interested in seeing what the book had to offer. It is a pace-based running program based on a recent 5k running result and has only three days of running per week and cross-training on the non-running days. The paces are a bit faster than previous pace-based programs that I have read, so the runs were difficult at first. Many of the pages are filled with success stories and letters from runners that have followed the program and completed races with PRs after following the program. So, if you like to read case studies and get runners' perspectives, you will enjoy the format of the book. I did find myself skipping past some of the stories to get to the "meat" of the program. The book may be a good program to follow for those athletes that have a tendency to get injured on running back-to-back days or high mileage weeks.
