Pfitzinger, a coach and marathon runner, and Douglas, an author, offer a guide for advanced marathon runners. They first explain the physiological attributes needed for success in a marathon; the role of nutrition and hydration; balancing training and recovery; types of flexibility, core strength, resistance training, and aerobic cross-training activities for use in supplementary training; tapering for peak marathon performance; and race strategy. The second part of the book contains programs for leading up to the marathon, with specific workouts for each day, as well as a program for multiple-marathon runners. This edition has a new chapter on older marathoners and expanded and updated information in each chapter. Annotation ©2019 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
