Description: In this age of instant information and new technologies, marathoner and fitness instructor Duncan Larkin recommends that runners get rid of their iPods, pace calculators, and heart monitors while exercising. Rather than helping a runner to improve, the author contends that these devices can be a detriment to both performance and the benefits of a training program. This book is a practical and inspirational pocket guide for runners of all abilities. The author's goal is to share with his fellow runners the principles he has discovered that prevent burn out and promote the maximum physical and mental benefits of running, along with ways to lose weight, prevent burn out, and eliminate boredom.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (pages 171-172) and index.
