Book excerpt: Completing a marathon, a half marathon, or an ultramarathon (distance greater than 26.2 miles) is an amazing feat, and it is an amazing feat that can be accomplished by all. If you ever thought about running but thought that it was "too hard" or that you weren't "tough enough", this book is for you! On the other hand, if you are a serious runner who is looking for that competitive edge, this book is for you as well! Professor Waterpeace shares a number of research-based efficient training methods which will turn the average person into a fat-burning machine, and turn the experienced runner into a competitive monster. Plus, there's an entire chapter about the necessity of eating (dark) chocolate as part of any effective training plan! This is the perfect book for anyone who runs or has ever even thought about running. This edition includes a foreword by the great Tom Osler, as well as a complete reprint of Osler's seminal 1967 running book, The Conditioning of Distance Runners.
