Nice!
By zoe
Build Your Running Body seems like one of the more thorough running books out there. Here's a quick breakdown of the chapters...
-Chapter 1 covers basic running stuff such as motivation, gear, etc.
-Chapter 2 is what I think of as the meat and potatoes of the book. It tells you how to build the parts of your body to get you a better "running body". A few areas discussed include the muscles, connective tissues, hormones, nervous system - I like the some of these are things runners don't normally think about.
-Chapter 3 talks helps you with a running program, talking about things such as a training schedule, recovery, injury prevention (BTW, runners with problematic hamstrings might want to check out Bulletproof Your Hamstrings
-Chapter 4 discusses running and your diet
-Chapter 5 talks about a racing strategy/approach
As you can see, its a pretty complete book that cover a lot of important (and little thought about) running information. There's also over a hundred workouts to help build your running body - from plyometrics to cross training - and there's even recipes! So if you're looking for ways to improve your running and your body, its worth a good look! :)

AWESOME illustrations, Love strength building and injury prevention exercises as well as the nutrition advice; highly recommend
By ALEJAS
Wow! I never thought that a book about running would call my attention, but this one did… I was totally surprised to learn that strength building exercises can help me to improve my running, as can eating certain types of foods. Who would have thought of finding recipes in a running book? Not me! To be honest, I did not pick up the book because I wanted to run. I was delighted that it had illustrations of strength building and injury prevention exercises.
A couple of years ago I sprained my ankle while playing soccer and was sent home with a cast and a sheet of paper with instructions of exercises that I could not figure out. With this book I can easily turn to the chart on page 378 to find a brief description of the injury that I suffered, as well as a list of exercises that can help me prevent/recover from this injury and I can then look at the illustrations of these exercises. I’ve also learned what exercises help to relieve my back of the stress of sitting on a chair for sustained periods of time (something I do at work every day). So, I love the illustrations that show how the exercise is done and also the charts that tell me which muscle groups are being worked out. Strength building is something that I had been wanting to do for some time now, but my biggest obstacle was that I tend to focus on one muscle group. Now that I have the book I use the chart as a guideline and it’s been of tremendous help.
Another thing that I like a lot about this book is that it talks about nutrients and food. For me this is interesting because oftentimes I feel weak after my workouts and when this happens I don’t feel like exercising anymore. I know that I am lacking one or more nutrients, but even my doctor has failed to give me good advice on this. So, the nutrition advice and recipes contained in this book come in very handy for me.
Third, I love that there’s a chart with schedules to follow. Plainly stated, I am not a planner. If the plan is given to me, I will carry it out. But if you ask me to plan my routine, be it running or any other kind of exercise, I might find it easier to skip the whole thing altogether. So, I could not be more grateful that the authors of this book have done all the planning for me!
Lastly, I was one of those people who think that running ruins your knees and creates all sorts of foot problems. But after about a week of reading this book, I am ready to reconsider my previous position on running. As a matter of fact, I am excited about it! This coming October I will be participating in my first 5K marathon and I am looking forward to it.
Build Your Running Body has helped me to understand that running is much more than putting on my tennis shoes and moving my legs. It’s a total workout that involves many muscles of the body as well as the mind. On my last visit to Barnes and Noble I browsed through other running books and I can honestly say that this one is the best. The book is worth it and I totally recommend it!

Encyclopedic...
By JAG
First let me say how excited I was when I heard Peter Magill had a book coming, I pre-ordered immediately as I really wanted to "Build my running body" for the upcoming season. Pete's American Record Masters 5K is an amazing accomplishment and his columns in Running Times meld experience, wit, and science into the best columns I have read. His focus on muscle fibers types and their relevancy really form a foundation for training and recovery. Perhaps my high expectations have led to my lackluster reaction to this book. It is like an encyclopedia trying to cover every topic possible from running history to muscle fibers to making meals. It is not focused on just "Building your running body" in the way that I envisioned. It has the feel of a book that is written by committee with multiple authors and editors each wanting to add more but then being constrained by page numbers. While I was waiting for this to come out, I purchased another book for focused strength training for runners that met my needs, but that is it's sole focus. I think the current book could have been broken into three (strength training, nutrition, training-racing).That being said, as noted, my reaction may be due to what I hoped for-a focused book-versus what this delivered-an encyclopedic effort. For others, I think its worth a look, you can always return to amazon if you don't like.
UPDATE Oct 2015 I am revising my star rating to 4 stars, perhaps was unfair initial assessment because it did not meet my personal expectations of what I was looking for. Major strengths are the wealth of information within this volume, major weakness is lack of focus, trying to be all inclusive. My personal benefits have come from the focus of running more frequently at more reasonable paces. While I did not PR in my main target (Half Marathon) I came close and PRd at other shorter distances. Most importantly, I am a happier injury free runner. Can't say all of that came from this book, but some of the principles certainly helped. Still admire Peter Magill and look forward to all of his columns and publications.
