Book Reviews of Marathon Training For Dummies

Book Review: Full of misinformation and downright dangerous
Summary: 1 Stars

Here's what you should know before you even consider buying this book: the author had NEVER RUN A MARATHON before writing the book. Not only is the book full of misinformation, but following some of her advice could lead to injury. If you're looking for a book to help you through that first (or fifth) marathon, consider a book by John Bingham, Jeff Galloway, or Hal Higdon. There are many other excellent marathon guides out there. This one should never have made it past an editor's desk.
