Vancouver Jogger Sep 2011 6:57pm, 4 Sep 2011 231 posts	Quote Pin Vancouver Jogger I got Daniel's a couple of months ago and have started to use it to devise a training programme. Whehter it is any good or not - too early to say. I like charts and numbers and equations though - and Daniel's certainly has lots of those. Certainly an interesting resource.

Really enjoyed it and although there are some ulterior motives in their with some controversial thinking it is a maginifcent read :D
wobblingTime Sep 2011 7:01pm, 4 Sep 2011 274 posts	Quote Pin wobblingTime I found Lore of Running too technical for me. I bought Paula Radcliffe's How To Run at the beginning of the summer and loved it. Lots of schedules for all sorts of distances and experience. Advice on other aspects of running too.
