Library's review

Joe Henderson subtitles his book, 'Lessons for Beginners on All Levels,' The 'all levels' feature is unique among books for beginners, because Henderson recognizes that everyone doesn't begin at the same place of with the same goals:

Jog, Run, Race tells you how to find your own starting point and

then how to move upward from there. It deals with many types of new beginnings:

1) Regaining fitness through programs of jogging or walking leading to jogging.
2) Advancing from jogging to 'fun running.'
3) Stepping up to long or fast racing.

The book leads beginners twhrough 33 valuable lessons covering the sport's theory and practice. Included are 15 month long training schedules, each designed to help the new jogger, runner or racer write his or her own success story.

Joe Henderson is the editor of Runner's Wrold Magazine.
