Lore of Running

Tim Noakes's "runner's bible" is a distillation of international research, by one of the world's foremost exercise and sports scientists. Established as a classic work on running, it is also at the cutting edge of discovery: the fourth edition challenges previously accepted theories of what causes fatigue in athletes and offers solutions on how best to train the body and brain to counter it. The book is suitable both for sports scientists and for medical practitioners, and is a resource for runners who want to understand and enjoy their sport.
