Publisher's Synopsis
In 2003, Joe Henderson released the second edition of his book Marathon Training. He based it on his long experience as a runner (marathoner since the 1960s) and writer (longtime columnist for Runner's World). But at the time of that book's publication he had never coached marathoners directly. That was about to change. Since 2005, he has coached a team of runners training for marathons, and he now details that experience in Joe's Team. He says, "I write here from the ninth year of this marathon coaching. The completed rounds of training (of four months each) now total 19. The finishes (including multiples by some runners) now top 500 and the finish rate is 99 percent. The program works. This book, taking its title from the team's name, outlines how that training plan developed, how it has played out for our team hundreds of times over and how it might take you where you want to go as a marathoner."
