About this product

Product Information

Athlete. Runner. Marathoner. Are these words you wouldn't exactly use to describe yourself? Do you consider yourself too old or too out of shape to run a marathon? But somewhere deep inside have you always admired the people who could reach down and come up with the mental and physical strength to complete such a daunting and rewarding accomplishment? It doesn't have to be somebody else crossing the finish line. You can be a marathoner. The Non-Runner's Marathon Trainer is based on the highly successful marathon class offered by the University of Northern Iowa, which was featured in a Runner's World article titled "Marathoning 101." The class has been offered five times over 10 years, and all but one student finished the marathon. That is approximately 200 students -- all first time marathoners and many with absolutely no running background. This book follows the same 16-week, four-day-a-week workout plan. What makes the success rate of this program so much higher than any other? The special emphasis on the psychological aspects of endurance activities. You don't have to love to run -- you don't even have to like it -- but you have to realize that you are capable of more than you have ever thought possible. One participant in the program explained it like this: "I'm doing this for me -- not for others or the time clock. I just feel better when I run, plus it helps me to cope with things in general. The skills we've learned in this class don't apply just to marathoning -- they apply to life! Just like you never know what the next step in a marathon will bring, so too, you never know what will happen next in life. But if you don't keep going, you're never going to find out. By staying relaxed, centered, and positive you handle just about anything that comes your way." This is marathon running for real people, people with jobs and families and obligations outside of running. The Non-Runner's Marathon Trainer has proven successful for men and women of all ages. Now let it work for you.

    A terrific book which will greatly help the non runner complete a marathon!

    I cannot possibly say enough good about this book! I bought this for my daughter, who wants to run(complete) a marathon next year. I have given this book as gifts to at least three other people, as I value my own copy too much to share. (It simply means too much to me.) I used this guide 5 years ago and followed their training program religiously. This is for the average person who does not live to run! I was a complete couch potato prior to getting this book. I was able to work two jobs, one full time, and one part time, even doing overtime at my full time job- and still keep up with the training schedule. I found the writers advice to be very useful, with great weekly tips and examples from various people taking the course in progress. It was very uplifting. The excerpt on the jacket ...

    Great first time training book.

    I had never done a marathon, but was given this book by a co-worker who had just ran her first one. I followed the plan and finished my first marathon. If your goal is to finish a marathon this is a wonderful book! It is not about being fast. It takes you week by week, and is very easy to follow. It was very inspirational to me. I have since passed it on to someone else interested in a first marathon,as I am starting an intermediate training program for my next marathon.

    Excellent book for someone interested in running their first marathon.

    This is a great book, as the title suggests, for someone who is interested in training for a marathon. A very easy read with inspiring stories and practical running advice. I read it and followed the advice given training for my first marathon in 2006. Since then I have read several other marathon training books and run over 30 marathons, but continue to recommend this book to friends and colleagues who are interested in running a marathon.
