Reviews
The Lancet
An excellent and comprehensive update on the sports medicine of marathon running...of interest not only to runners but to anyone interested in the extremes and limitations of human aerobic performance that means sports physicians, sports scientists, exercise physiologists, sports therapists, and coaches...Almost every important issue related to marathon medicine is to be found in this book.

British Journal of Sports Medicine, Judges' Comments
This is the best book on the marathon I have ever read...comprehensive, direct, accessible, and practical are only a few relevant adjectives applicable to this text. It even kept me awake on a Sydney to London flight!

2002 BMA Medical Book Competition
A thoroughly readable book with wide appeal for health care workers and runners. A great blend of science, medicine and history. I really enjoyed reading this book and would defy any health worker or runner not to find something of interest for them. It covers some key ground in sports medicine and public health in a very digestible fashion.
