Run Like a Pro (Even If You're Slow)

Elite Tools and Tips for Runners at Every Level

De: Matt Fitzgerald, Ben Rosario

Narrado por: Ryan Lee Dunlap, Chris Berger

Cutting-edge advice on how to achieve your personal best, for everyone from casual runners to ultramarathoners.

In 80/20 Running, respected running and fitness expert Matt Fitzgerald introduced his revolutionary training program and explained why doing 80 percent of runs at a lower intensity and just 20 percent at a higher intensity is the best way for runners at all levels - as well as cyclists, triathletes, and even weight-loss seekers - to improve their performance.

Now, in this eye-opening follow-up, Fitzgerald teams with Olympic coach Ben Rosario to expand and update the 80/20 program to include ultramarathon training and such popular developments as the use of power meters.

New research has bolstered the case that the 80/20 method is in fact that most effective way to train for distance running and other endurance sports. Run Like a Pro (Even If You’re Slow) shows listeners how to take the best practices in elite running and adopt them within the limits of their own ability, lifestyle, and budget.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Great book! Very practical!

I’m going to strive to use the information here and see if they can transform my running.

absolutely love this book!

Absolutely love this book! it's super helpful and easy to follow. if you're looking for getting the next level of running you'll find it in there!

Inspiration

Finally I know exactly how to train. Guess work eliminated. Now I can chase my dreams with knowledge and research behind them.

Great Guide for Improving the Recreational Runner skills

Liked that this book was authored by two renowned runners in different points of view. Loved that there are specific training skills that needed to be told that are not really known to the “rest of us” runners.
I was ok with all the mention of studies that prove this and that —but I somehow got lost in the technicalities.
I am going to listen to it for the second time to better understand Ben’s coaching advise and Matt’s perspective and experience backed by science.
Loved the narrators’ excited voices!

Great running book

If you are at all interested in improving your running this is your book. I always learn something new from Matt in each of his books.

State of the (Running) Art

State of the art information for serious runners which, I confess, I am not. Nevertheless, I learned several key principles that I will be applying in my far less serious running efforts. The information is supported by lots of engaging stories of real runners. Thank you for a wonderful book.

Detailed

Great audio book. I'd just rather have the author read it but that's just a personal preference

Fantastic Follow Up Book!

I absolutely loved the 80/20 book for running. I used the training plans for several years. So when this book came out, I jumped on it. For runners who are familiar with training plans, heart rate zones, etc. this book is the next step. I can't wait to see where the training plans get me!

motivation

Good motivation, smart running plans. The training plans are doable for most people, regardless of your starting fitness. I have two marathon slow finishes and one wash out.

Good for Beginners

Good for beginners - leaves more experienced runners wanting more. The reading was really well done and the quality of the book is great.
