Publisher's Synopsis
In 1998, Daniels published "Dr. Daniels' Running Formula," which passed on his extensive training experience to thousands of runners around the globe, and has since been a long-selling, world-class running textbook. Now in its fourth edition, the book has not only been updated, but also further refined his training methods and strategies to help runners improve their speed and fitness. Based on his groundbreaking VDOT system, Daniels incorporates new insights from his unique Run SMART program. The book guides readers through the key elements that make up the training formula and introduces training methods that include treadmill training, fitness training, and training at high altitude or in other challenging environments. In addition, specific modification recommendations are provided for runners of all ages, from 6 to 80 years old.
