Run Strong by Andrew Read [PDF]

Break free of the gym and hit the road – with a plan.

Running is the pinnacle of human movement, an ability that gave our species its competitive edge. Run Strong by coach Andrew Read is your guide to becoming strong and resilient enough to enjoy fast, sustainable, and injury-free running.

Training should improve you both physically and psychologically. A lifelong competitive athlete and an accomplished coach, Andrew Read has trained hundreds of athletes and competed in numerous endurance events including a full Ironman and two half-Ironman races.

Through his years of experience on both sides of the training equation, Andrew has developed and honed his training techniques and knowledge. Now, he has taken everything he’s learned about the art and science of running (and why most everyone fails at it) and put it into Run Strong.

As importantly as what you learn to do, you will learn what to avoid and what to watch for when you take up running. Nobody wants to be sidelined with an injury, so Run Strong puts heavy emphasis on how to stay healthy while you build up your speed and endurance.

There are plenty of books out there on how to run fast and plenty more on how to run far. Now, there is a book on how to run for life.
