Long distance running is much like any other fitness training. If you want to improve, you need a good plan that has a progressive nature. If you are new to this game, you need a solid foundation to build on. Having a running program is not the only thing that you need. Sound advice and running tips should be taken from someone who has "walked the walk", or in this case, "ran the run".

Some Good Tips
There were some good tips included. It was hard to get through the first two or three chapters since so much was what has been said over and over in so many other books of this type. The narration was calming and there were several tips that are usable. I will revisit it several times as I complete my yearly program as directed in the story.

Listen often
First I find the tone and pace of the reader easy to listen to. Second the instructions are honest and practical. I've been on my fitness journey now for 6 months and ordered this book because I need to build a stronger mindset. Listening to it during my low points lifts my motivation.

No quick fixes, but a full year of plans and tips
James Atkinson uses this book to set out a "whole year plan" to help someone get fit. There is no "quick way" presented here. The bulk of the book is made up of 25 hints/tips/rules to get fit. It is a 50 week plan, as you add something in each fortnight, building on the previous ones. So every two weeks you add in the next step/tip/plan item to your routine. It is made to take time, but do also help you build into it and get it to be a lifestyle, not a quick win.
Atkinson provides his bona fides, with his history of being a personal trainer and his work in the industry. He comes across as well informed and level headed, providing good, clear, systematic advice. The advice given is useful and taylorable - is is aware of different lifestyles and availability of services and equipment, and provides hints for getting around that. It is not a one size fits all. He opens the book with some safety and health advice, so that you do not push yourself and hurt yourself. The writing and presentation give me confidence that the advice and hints given here come from experience, with an eye for longevity, and not someone trying to make a quick buck with a 'how to lose x in x days" approach.
Because this is a year long plan, I can see myself revisiting this book several times. Maybe for this a written copy, rather than audiobook, would be more appropriate. Atkin's does provide downloadable resources from his website, mentioned in the book - jims health and muscle dot com.
Narration by Matt Addis is good. Clear and easy to follow, well paced and generally enjoyable. Atkinson has a dry sense of humour in the book, and the British accent of Addis fits well with this.
Worth listening, and worth revisiting.

Great Book
Thank you for the motivation and simple ways to get started. It is greatly appreciated as it is tough to come across a book with good information with so many fads and "quick fix" books out there.
