For you, my friend, I will throw in a free copy of the "M25 Junctions 27 to 30" magazine from Autumn 2009.

Thanks again Boab! Unfortunately I trained on it for months as well, and then one day couldn't run through the tears anymore! I'm hoping that I'll be able to run again in a month or so as it does seem to finally be improving (been nearly six months now). I'll probably never know exactly how it started, but very interesting about the advice on orthotics (I've always been a skeptic - and even knocked back a suggested referral for orthotics!).

Hello again - this was the thread I was thinking of on the PF discussion earlier.

About This Thread

Maintained by GregP
What do we think, guys?

Cut and paste from a review on Amazon:
_____________________________________________

The book is for anyone who wants to improve their running performance and is divided into 4 sections. The first section explains the FIRST approach, where a "3 plus 2" format is the foundation. This means you have 3 quality runs each week and 2 cross training workouts.

The second section is how to follow the program. Briefly, one day is a cross training day, then a "track repeats" day, then a cross training day, then a "tempo run" day, a day of rest, a "long run" day, and then either another rest day/or optional cross training day. Cross training days include activities such as cycling or swimming.
