Run Smart Audiobook

Run Smart: Debunking Marathon Myths uses the latest scientific research to show how preparing for and running marathons can be made easier, and in doing so challenges many of the myths that surround marathon running.

The book draws on the author’s experience as one of the UK’s leading sports scientists, his extensive research background in marathon running and his experience as a marathon runner to provide credible advice to runners to support their preparation for a marathon.

The book also challenges many current concepts, myths and ideas, providing science-based alternatives in areas such as training and nutrition that will optimise and ease a runner’s preparation for and completion of the 26.2 mile distance. This highly accessible book uses the latest scientific findings to support new runners training for their first marathons and to help more experienced athletes improve and train smarter.
