Description:
The Total Runner’s Almanac-3 is a comprehensive logbook and training primer.
Building on the earlier, highly successful and standard-setting almanacs for runners
and triathletes, it is light weight and “pared down to the bones,” a flexible year-long
training companion.
Spanning 54 weeks, the undated weekly log pages now have twice the room to write,
more than any book in its class. 22 charts and templates to organize:
•        Training
•        Goal setting
•        Race planning
•        Pace setting
•        Long term record keeping
The Almanac saves time for the experienced runner. For the newer participant, it’s a
foundation for establishing a proper training program which conforms to current
advances in exercise physiology, training and race preparation. For all, it’s an
indispensable year-round organizer, record keeper and information source.
You will learn from world class runners and coaches how to:
•        Eat for peak performance
•        Prevent burn-out and injury
•        Train and race with a heart rate monitor
•        Improve your strength, speed and endurance
•        Prepare, taper and peak for a race of any distance
