Synopsis
Once you commit to running a marathon, you need to start preparing for it—mentally and physically. Marathon Training presents three separate 100-day training programs to maximize your efforts:
-If you can comfortably run six miles and have finished an organized race in the past, the Cruiser program enhances your chances of finishing your first marathon.
-After you've cruised your first marathon, you'll want to set your personal record (PR) by using the Pacer program. You'll run the entire distance of the race at your own pace and set goals for future finishes.
-Whether you want to beat your own PR or someone else's, the rigorous trainingschedule in the Racer program will help you achieve that goal.
A prolific writer, coach, and runner, author Joe Henderson has designed daily log pages to help you monitor all the variables that affect training, including weather and course conditions; training effectiveness; mental and physical benchmarks; and time, distance, and pace goals. Each day, as you fill out your log page, Henderson's sage advice and “thought for the day” will give you a greater understanding of, and a deeper commitment to, your goal of running a marathon.
Use Marathon Training as you would a personal coach: to motivate, inform, and inspire you through 91 days of marathon training and 9 days of post-race recovery.

Review
"Joe Henderson has more insight on the running scene, and how it has developed, than anyone I know. His advice is the gold standard."
Jeff Galloway
Competitor in more than 100 marathons
Author of Galloway's Book on Running
"Joe Henderson's 15-week marathon training plan covers all the bases—and provides the ideal mix of tips and motivation."
Amby Burfoot
Executive editor, Runner's World magazine
1968 Boston Marathon winner
From Northwest Runner
"This simply-titled book is typical of the way Joe approaches running - straightforward - and contains a blessedly small amount of hype and big promises on the cover. What it does deliver is a comon-sense approach to training for and running a marathon from the man whose advice Jeff Galloway describes as the 'gold standard'...Throughout the book are many examples of Joe's own brand of homespun running wisdom as well as daily training tips, each worth the price of admission alone."
