Keeps your Running August 8, 2004
This book is as complete a guide to marathoning as I've found. It addresses all aspects of training--both mental and physical--and racing, and does so in a way that will help people achieve their goals and more importantly enjoy the entire process. Bloom is not a particularly accomplished runner, but his writing about the subject is passionate and very clear and he gives advice from numerous sources--champion runners, non-competitive running lovers and his own personal experience. All of the information in the book is helpful and presented with a touch of humor that keeps it interesting. I would recommend this book especially to first time marathoners, but competitive athletes would find many useful tidbits as well. This is a very good running guide and should be added to every running library.
