Average Customer Review: 5 stars (out of 5)

I am looking for some motivation to get back out there and run -- the spring has me eager to go, but my winter dormancy really makes it hard to get going. The first few weeks are always so hard. This is the book I've found. It has great reviews at Amazon! I'm most excited about this book because it is actually written for dedicated runners that want to get over the plateaus -- so it will be great inspiration year around!!!

How to Run and Enjoy the Marathon - go to the sales page
By James Raia

How to Run and Enjoy the Marathon is a series of 15 articles addressing
different aspects of running and training for a marathon. It isn't a
long book, but it is packed with information. It's worth every penny.

If you've never run a marathon, or have had an unpleasant marathon
experience, this concise book will give you some pointers (which you
will need) for proper preparation.

I recommend reading this book in segments. Read the first few chapters
now, while you're looking for motivation and direction. After you've
started a routine, read or re-visit the next few chapters. They will
help you equip yourself with proper gear, and proper etiquette and
safety. Finally, when you are close to race time, read or re-visit
chapter 14, which will guide you through pre-race preparation.

The reference guide at the end will direct you to good running
information sources for anything else you want to know.

What Readers Are Saying...

About the Weight Lifting for Absolute Beginners eBook:

"This plan makes it so easy..."

"I had had an inkling of the benefits of weightlifting before, but no complete plan. This plan makes it so easy to keep track, gives more info about procedure than any other “method” I’ve come across, and is so low key with fillips of humor, which make it more enjoyable. Thank you!"

~ Frances

"The pictures are great..."

I just started the program and I enjoy it! The book is very easy to understand and the pictures are great! I'm looking forward to waking up to lift weights to challenge myself. I feel a small difference in the way my clothes fit and a huge difference about how my muscles feel (tight). Feeling the difference in the way my clothes fit really makes me yearn to lift weights and exercise. I'm very pleased with the book and have recommended it to some friends."

~Michelle

"Any beginner can understand the exercises immediately..."

Weight Lifting For Absolute Beginners is illustrated so well that any beginner can understand the exercises immediately.

The illustrations of exercises are really lifelike, and the descriptions are clear, straightforward and easy to follow. In addition to guiding you through the exercises, this e-book provides complete workout routines and gives you a clear-cut plan to stay on track.

Weight Lifting For Absolute Beginners will do more for you than a session with a personal trainer - and for only a tiny fraction of the cost! I highly recommend this outstanding e-book to anyone who wants to get the most out of their workout.

"Easiest-to-use..."

I'm only getting started, but this is the best-illustrated, easiest-to-use weight-lifting booklet I've ever found. The fact that it's female-centric really, really *made* the decision to purchase it for me.
