‘A winning blend of rigorous science, practical advice, and entertaining stories … I can’t think of a runner who wouldn’t benefit from its wisdom’ ED CAESAR FOREWORD FROM ELIUD KIPCHOGE From one of the world’s leading sports scientists and former advisor to record-breaking athletes Paula Radcliffe and Eliud Kipchoge, FASTER is an essential guide to improving your running – whatever your distance or goal. Leading physiologist Professor Andy Jones draws on decades of research and a wealth of experience as a consultant in elite sport to explain the science behind speed, energy, resilience and recovery, and to provide practical, research-backed strategies you can use in your training and racing. With clear examples and engaging stories from across his own career as a competitive runner, Jones offer insights for refining your training and developing your own focused plan – whether your goal is to achieve a new personal best, improve your VO2max or running economy, tackle a new distance, or simply keep running for many years to come. Containing chapters on nutrition, training, sleep, pacing and supplements, together with an appendix of sample training plans, this book is a science-backed and field-tested guide to performing at your best and a must-read for anyone serious about getting faster.
