1: Over rated
This is to much book for a lot of useless information. Most of the info is general info most people already know. Even if they haven't run before. I suggest you Pass on this one.

2: Ranita's review of Complete Book of Women's Running
I love this book!!!! I have only had it for 1 week and I have felt motivated and read some great tips for just about anything you can think of. A great read for runners/joggers of any level.
|
3: Good for running at any level
This book is good for all runners: one who is just beginning or one ready to run a marathon. I am somewhere in between so this was perfect for me. I appreciate the women specific info. Good book to reference often during your training.

4: Attention women runners (and nonrunners)!
This book is great for getting you off the couch and out into the running world! The author includes her own personal stories of her running adventures and makes you feel like you can do anything. And best of all, it's written by a woman for women: young and old, fat and skinny, runners and non-runners alike. I started with the beginning running program and I can already run 5 minutes at a time! That might not sound like a lot to most people, but I have asthma and I never thought it would be possible. I'm hoping to try my first 5k next year!

5: A little disappointed!
I was so looking forward to getting this book. And I was disappointed. It is ok but not quite "a complete book of running" I had taken about 9 months off of running due to pregnancy and was hoping to get motivated again. This book just kind of fell short. I think a "complete book of running" should include some routines, that could help all levels of runners (not just the marathoners that are mentioned) and more specific diet advice. More advice on building endurance etc etc. I think this caters to marathoners and just the novice beginners. I have seen better articles written in fitness magazines!
