Bill Rodgers and Priscilla Welch on Masters Running and Racing

Rating:
Summary: Concise, informative, easy reading to improve your running!
Review: Excellent book consisting of 19 easy to understand chapters covering a wide array of appropriate topics for those interested in running and/or racing. Chapter titles include, "Learning to Run Smarter", "The Diet of Champions", Racing for Fun" & "Running Faster, Farther, Better". The book addresses racing from the 1 Mile to the Marathon (26.2 miles). The comments from Bill Rodgers and Priscilla Welch were very helpful and provided a nice personal touch that was not only balanced between two genders, but between two different professional running experiences. A MUST READ for all runners over 30 years of age!

Summary: The Old Timers Friend
Review: The best part of this book are the charts at the end for converting "old man times" to "young man times". Mostly it seems to be a bibliography on Boston Billy and Priscilla Welch. But just the conversion charts are worth having.
