[Closed] Runners equivalent of Joe Friel?

For what distance?

Peter Coe's book is excellent IMO, and comparable in terms of Friel's scientific nature, but is more focused on middle distance.

For marathon training Pfitzinger seems to be well liked.

But essentially training is training, so what works for cycling, works for running. Intervals, sweet spot, threshold, distance etc.

The distance runners bible is the 'Lore of Running' by Tim Noakes

Can get a bit heavy, but v good 🙂

Sorry, posted this then went to work with no Internets all day, duh.

Thanks. Marathon distance really, for a friend but I'm after the sort of revered scientific training bible the Joe Friel's book seems to be.

Will look at those suggestions. What about Hal Higdon's book?
