Book Reviews of Going Long: Training for Ironman-Distance Triathlons (Ultrafit Multisport Training Series)
Book Review: Ironman Way of Life
Summary: 5 Stars
By far, this is the better triathlon book I ever saw, and believe me, I'm a expert reader in the matter. Because the book is written for ironman athletes, and I am also one, this book could be called "Ironman Training Bible", because is just the most complete book about the distance. Nothing that could be learn here, is a new kind of method. The authors mixed the old way of reaching the top, with new and efficient techniques. I know their work for several years now. Joe is one of the best coaches in the sport, and unlike others, he's not afraid of sharing his knowledge and studies. Gordo, in other end, is the guy that went from middle of the pack (his first Kona experience was in 1999, with an International Lottery Slot, just like me that year), to the very top of our sport (3rd place Ironman Canada 2003, and Ultraman Champion 2002), cutting about two hours to his performance in the distance, in only four years (!!). Because this is a book about all aspect of Ironman Training, you can achieve a good knowledge of what is an Ironman Way of Life, in other words, Gordos Way of Life; he, like no other, as shown (in xtri.com and gordoworld.com) us that the abilities to ironman success are simply in learning; and because he has been an avid student, as a teacher, he's the best we can get.
