Running in the midpack

Yelling, Martin

£12.99

This is an expert running guide designed to engage with the substantial, and growing, yet often overlooked, middle-of-the-pack runner. The book is co-written by Martin Yelling, London Marathon’s official coach and star of Marathon Talk, the UK’s number 1 running podcast. Midpack runners are the unsung heroes of the running world and often don’t get the credit they deserve. ‘Midpackers’ run week-in, week-out, year-in, year-out but are ignored in book terms in favour of beginners and elite runners. And being in the mid-pack can be far from fun, often their performances plateau and this lack of achievement can lead to a loss of enthusiasm. This book is specially devised with midpackers in mind and will provide this important group with all the expert knowledge they need to go faster and go further.
