The Non-Runner's Marathon Trainer from McGraw-Hill Contemporary Price: £5.39 Customer Review: I had never run a marathon before buying this book, I'd never even run a 10km race before and, perhaps more importantly, I hadn't done any serious running (as opposed to a jog once in a while) for 20 years.

Being a very competitive person I thought the best thing was to run till I thought I would die, then try and run harder the next day. In the end,... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

3.		Triathletes Training Bible from VeloPress Price: £15.19 Customer Review: In my opinion, the goal of this book is to give people who want to compete in triathalons a scientific, self-coached training plan.

Part one, "The self-trained triathlete" is concerned with the... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

Feet in the Clouds: A Story of Fell Running and Obsession from Aurum Press Ltd Price: £6.99 Customer Review: Do not read this.... unless you want to leave your armchair and get out onto the hills.

Running Well: Run Smarter, Run Faster, Avoid Injury... and Enjoy It More! from Kyle Cathie Price: £7.49 Customer Review: If you aren't a member of a club with trainers and physio's to hand then "Running Well" is probably the next best thing.

6.		Freerunning: Find Your Way from Michael O'Mara Books Price: £5.99 Customer Review: `Freerunning' is a well presented book showing Sebastien Foucan performing various freerunning stunts, interspersed with his thoughts on freerunning and life.

8.		4 Months to a 4 Hour Marathon from Perigee Price: £9.49 Customer Review: I finished reading this book in a little over an hour. There's very little of substance here. If you're a decent runner to start with it has schedules and minimal dietary information, but few alternatives to the food suggested. If you're a beginner, try something else.
