  Why did I do a long run yesterday? How fast should I cycle tomorrow? Why did I feel tired after an easy run? What should I do in the last week before a race? Endurance athletes have to train a lot, but training by guesswork, or blindly following others, won't get the best results. Training to often, or too fast or haphazardly, can lead to injury, tiredness and disappointment. The Complete Guide to Endurance Training will teach you how to make the right training decisions - to train smarter and achieve better results.
