I personally didn't find this book helpful or even motivating for me to better my running。It mostly covers techniques and stuff that's common knowledge on runners world or even just from a quick google search。 I personally didn't find this book helpful or even motivating for me to better my running。It mostly covers techniques and stuff that's common knowledge on runners world or even just from a quick google search。 。。。more

Brilliantly written。 For runners to feel supported in their craziness and for non-runners to understand the craziness of runners。

The audiobook version of ‘Running in the Mid-pack’ was a welcome companion on my runs。 This audiobook was narrated by authors and was both well written and easy to listen to。Having an audiobook of this title was a stroke of genius as the very act of running gives ample opportunity to listen to this book, and as such I was able to get through it very quickly。 It is also super motivating to listen to and the very act of listening while running made me put that bit more effort into my runs!Authors The audiobook version of ‘Running in the Mid-pack’ was a welcome companion on my runs。 This audiobook was narrated by authors and was both well written and easy to listen to。Having an audiobook of this title was a stroke of genius as the very act of running gives ample opportunity to listen to this book, and as such I was able to get through it very quickly。 It is also super motivating to listen to and the very act of listening while running made me put that bit more effort into my runs!Authors are very authoritative on their topic and cover all the areas of running and racing that we would expect from a book on this topic。This is a book that is as relevant to seasoned runners as well as those who are new to running。 Despite having run for many years I still learnt a lot from this book, and even the sections that had very familiar content to me were welcome as revision。The book covers areas such as nutrition, race preparation, progression and injury。 My favourite section being the section on training - lots of ideas and inspiration for anyone wanting to hone their skills!My thanks to Netgalley, author and publisher for the opportunity to review this audiobook in exchange for an advance copy。 。。。more

Audiobook narrated by the authors and they were awesome。 If you’re not a runner or a person who wants to be or longs to be a runner than you probably wont like this book。 At 40 it took me 2 years before I could run a 5k without stopping。 I wish I’d had this book as a reference back then because I know it could of really helped me out。 Great advance and honesty about the struggles。 I felt like I had a personal trainer。 For me the book talked about all my issues。 What to do, how to do it and why w Audiobook narrated by the authors and they were awesome。 If you’re not a runner or a person who wants to be or longs to be a runner than you probably wont like this book。 At 40 it took me 2 years before I could run a 5k without stopping。 I wish I’d had this book as a reference back then because I know it could of really helped me out。 Great advance and honesty about the struggles。 I felt like I had a personal trainer。 For me the book talked about all my issues。 What to do, how to do it and why we do it。 It covers everything! Totally worth getting if you’re serious about running。 Thank you Bloomsbury UK Audio via Netgalley for gifting me this audiobook。 I’ve voluntarily given my honest review。 。。。more
