I have been running as part of my health and fitness regimen for years now, but mostly in the casual form.  More recently family members have been participating in various 5k's or other road races for causes, making me consider trying my first.  While searching for books on marathon preparation I found this gem, which has a good supply of information inside.  Among my favorite parts are "Obtaining the Runner's Mindset" and the section on "Tips for Race Day."I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book with its very specific insights.  If you're preparing for your first ever marathon or other road race, this book will get you headed in the right direction for success.
