About the book
Absolute Beginner's Guide to Half-Marathon Training provides readers an easy-to-understand introduction to the world of running half-marathons - including the health benefits, warm-up and flexibility exercises and routines, finding the appropriate clothing and shoes, how to prevent and treat injuries, nutritional needs, and racing strategies. Illustrated to make learning quick and easy, and loaded with notes on training gadgets and gear, staying motivated, and how to train without pain, this book makes running an accessible and easy-to-practice fitness routine. Written by Heather Hedrick and endorsed by the National Institute for Fitness and Sport, this book is based on the NIFS 14-week half-marathon training program. Nationally known and highly praised, the NIFS half-marathon training program was developed by exercise physiologists and endurance sport specialists from their Human Performance Lab. Though primarily targeted toward beginning runners who want to achieve the half-marathon milestone, the Absolute Beginner's Guide to Half-Marathon Training will be an effective training tool for runners or walkers interested in completing 5K, 10K or half-marathon races.
