If you are overweight, lethargic and slow moving, imagine a life
full of energy where you can do almost anything you want to do and
at the same time enjoy good food and wine. A fit and healthy
lifestyle can bring with it self-esteem and confidence, better
relationships, more job opportunities, 'joie de vivre' and most
important of all, a 'can-do' attitude. If you are a Joe or Jo Schmo
- leading a sedentary lifestyle, unfit and rarely exercise this
book can put you on the road to a longer, healthier and more
fulfilling life. Written for both novices and regular runners, its
step-by-step approach motivates first-timers to take the initial
step and for regular runners to take the next logical step and
really get serious about their training. The book provides a
common-sense approach to improving health and fitness to reduce the
risk of heart disease and hopefully add a few extra years onto your
life that will be less stressful and more enjoyable. The early part
of this book is devoted to those people who can identify with Joe
or Jo Schmo and wish to make exercise a regular part of their
routine but are not sure where to start. The remaining chapters
progress through the various aspects of running, such as training
for short races all the way up to the marathon, health and
nutrition, the science of running, cross training and finally the
benefits of a regular running program.
