Heart & Sole 26.2
The true stories of 26 men and women who ran their first marathon (and how you can, too). Rookie marathoners who lost weight, managed illnesses, juggled crazy schedules, and crossed the finish line anyway, plus the training wisdom I collected over sixteen marathons of my own.
My conclusion, after all of them: "It's like having babies. While you are doing it, you wonder why the heck you put yourself through such torture. Immediately after it's over, you swear you'll never do it again. By the next day, you're planning the next one."
Praised by Bill Rodgers, four-time winner of the Boston and New York City Marathons.
