Product Description
Get in the best shape of your running career with the scientifically based training in Daniels Running Formula. In the book that Runners World magazine called "the best training book," premier running coach Jack Daniels provides you with his proven VDOT formula to guide you through training at exactly the right intensity to become a faster, stronger runner. Choose from the red, white, blue, and gold programs to get into shape, target a race program, or regain conditioning after a layoff or injury. Race competitively with programs for 800 meters, 1500 meters to 3000 meters, cross country races, 5K to 15K, and half-marathon up to the marathon. Each program incorporates the right mix of the five training intensities to help you build endurance, strength, and speed, and Daniels intensity point system makes it easy to track the time you spend at each level. The formula can be customized to your current fitness level and the number of weeks you have available for training, and it provides the perfect solution for short training seasons. Get the results youre seeking every time you lace up your shoes for a training run or race with the workouts and programs detailed in Daniels Running Formula.

 Great book! December 23, 2008
This is a great book. Could help any runner or coach seeking a science based, practical application of some great training theories!
THE Book on Running Training December 21, 2008
I ran competitively for over tenty-five years before getting the book and I still learned a lot. I gave a copy to my son (20 yrs old) and recommended it to one of his friends. Not only did they both improve dramatically (in a hurry), but the book has also provided even more motivation for their running efforts. When someone asks me if there are any good books on running training, I simply tell them "Jack Daniels Running Formula". They laugh thinking I'm kidding, but they remember the name.
 Too much information! November 14, 2008

This book certainly does not follow the KISS formula. I gave up trying to figure it all out and put it up where I don't have to be reminded I wasted my money. If you're an experienced runner then this book might work for you. If you're pushing 50 and just want to get in better shape via jogging there has to be better. This book is like geared towards olympic hopefuls I think.
Great Book! October 30, 2008
This book is fantastic! Gets into why you do certain workouts without getting so technical you can't understand it.
Also has training plans for a variety of experience levels and distances.
A must read for runners!
The best training book October 24, 2008
The results talk by themselves, my PR before following Jack Daniel's training plans: 3:24 for the marathon, achieved after years of running. Followed the "Marathon Training Plan A (pg. 260) for 2008 Boston Marathon and got a new PR of 3:17:11, followed the Elite Training Plan (pg. 264) and a new PR of 3:01:45 in last September's 2008 Berlin Marathon. This book is great, full of smart tips and science. The plans are no play, this is serious training but the rewards are great, specially when you are 48!
