Richtig laufen mit Galloway. Athleten und Trainer… by Jeff Galloway

Dieses Buch war wohl leider nicht für mich...
Als Freizeitsportlerin und Radfahrerin hätte ich gerne etwas über den Einstieg in entspanntes (Gelegenheits-)Laufen gelesen. Im Winter - im Dunklen - fände ich Laufen vielleicht besser als Radfahren. Und draußen trotzdem schöner als drinnen.
Der Einstieg ins Laufen wird allerdings auf ca. 5 (von 230) Seiten abgehandelt mit: "Gehen Sie". Und immer (wirklich IMMER) wird vorausgesetzt, dass man an mindestens 3 Tagen pro Woche läuft.
Der Rest des Buches ist der Wettkampfvorbereitung, Verletzungen und ähnlichem gewidmet. Außerdem ist das Buch - gerade auch bei den Ernährungstipps - nicht wirklich gut gealtert.
Erschwerdend kam hinzu, dass dieses Buch in der Onleihe als PDF zur Verfügung steht. Dieses Format lässt sich aber leider weder auf dem Reader noch (im Browser) am PC wirklich komfortabel lesen.
Für ernsthafte Läufer, die ihre Wettkampfzeit verbessern möchten, vielleicht ein Tipp, für mich eher ein Flop, einen großen Teil habe ich bestenfalls quergelesen.

Marathon: You Can Do It! by Jeff Galloway

A classic with some great advice, but very repetitive and out of date, especially with regard to diet.

Marathon! by Jeff Galloway

One of the best books on Marathons ever written. I meet the author at the 1996 Portland Marathon clinic and he signed my copy. He gave me some great advice on my Marathon later that weekend where I set a P.R!
