The book offers simple and sensible advice on marathon preparation without over-complicating things. Each section of the book contains simple strategies that will help you work towards a new personal best. For example, the training section contains four training methods with a simple explanation of what it is and how often it should be done:

If you then feel that you want to know more about each of these methods or any of the other tips in the book, you can go to the Training and Advice section on the runbritain website that contains more clarification of the 'how' and 'why' of each method and strategy.
