## Description

Lore of Running : Timothy Noakes: desertcart.co.uk: Books

Review: If you did check the number of pages (922) and still want to buy it, you 'll love it! - THIS IS NOT A TRAINING MANUAL! I just said what is most important about this book. It will not tell you straight away and in a few words how to train. It will tell you in excruciating detail EVERYTHING about the LORE of running. A lot of pages are devoted to things that only vaguely have to do with training, like biographies of well know runners and their training schedules, some from the beginning of the 20th century or before (hence the title: LORE of running!). You will see a lot of pages the Kenyans, clothing, shoes, famous marathons etc. Now, if you love running AND reading, this is the book for you! If you spend a lot of your time reading about running in magazines and over the internet, you are in the right place. The book is well written, informative, somber and scientific. It is a reference textbook for runners. The best of its kind!
Review: Perfect timing to read is before start running as I ... - The bible for each runner. Lots of information, science, and incredible job done by Tim Noakes. When you need refresh your knowledge, always keep this book on hand and browse. Perfect timing to read is before start running as I did it as well. Prompt delivery and packaging was in excellent condition.

The bible for each runner. Lots of information, science, and incredible job done by Tim Noakes. When you need refresh your knowledge, always keep this book on hand and browse. Perfect timing to read is before start running as I did it as well. Prompt delivery and packaging was in excellent condition.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Comprehensive and thorough
*by B***N on 11 March 2013*

An incredibly detailed review of almost every aspect of running, aimed at pretty serious runners. There's no quick fix, one plan for everyone included: instead, you're presented with the evidence, backed by peer reviewed publication, and encouraged to tailor a plan of training, nutrition, and racing to suit your own particular requirements. It's incredibly in depth, and impossible to read from cover-to-cover: instead it should be seen as a reference book. If you're not already a serious runner, this isn't a good introduction to the sport. If, however, you're fairly keen and looking for the information and guidance to take your running to the next level, this is the book for you.
