### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Motivational  0-60 mins for 0-60 yr olds
*by L***S on January 20, 2014*

I'm a middle aged woman who has attempted to get fit, unsuccessfully ,over the last few years,until now .I read this book first and couldn't put it down .It inspired me to root out an old pair of trainers and hit my local laneways .I have reread the book several times and it is inspiring me to continue on my successful journey to running 60 mins .It is well written ,easy to understand and peppered with practical advice on equipment , diet ,motivation, how to deal with weather ,indoor and outdoor running etc -basically all questions are answered in this book . The "cat named" week concept is what won me over -I set my own personal goals and progress at my own pace so no room for failure. I keep my book on my laptop and have a quick browse before planning my next days run .Am so thrilled to have found this book and would shout about it on the rooftops. Love the support group that is associated with the book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Useful Book For Beginning Runners, Recommended
*by R***N on July 26, 2020*

I'm an avid bicyclist, but not a young one, at age 62. One day a few weeks ago, the rear wheel on my bike cracked. While waiting for a new rim to be found, I decided to give running a try. I put on my Salomon hiking boots and managed to run 0.21 of a mile. I did another short run, this time of 0.52 mile. Then a third of about the same distance. Then my bike was ready to use. I picked it up and rode it home, and was amazed to find it was easier for me to do a mild (not very steep) hill climb. I decided to get more serious about running. I looked on Amazon and found this book.It took a few days for the book to reach me, and by then, I had started to use the "Couch to 5K" app on my iPhone. I read this book from cover to cover, and like it a lot. The font is a nice size and easy for me to read. It is basically telling me I can run a total of 60 minutes non-stop, with training, and by running slowly. That was very encouraging for me.The chapters are organized in a logical progression that make sense to me as a "newbie" to running. The book answers many of my questions.I've come to running with some physical conditioning already, from my bicycling. The first week's program from this book seems pretty easy. I can see for myself how the program progresses so that I will be gradually doing more running, and I like seeing the entire program so that I can form an opinion of it. (Mostly I ask myself, "How am I going to set up an interval timer iPhone app for each session?"The advice on the needed kit is well taken. I now have basic running shoes (called "trainers" in the book), and I guess I'm satisfied to run in an L. L. Bean swimming trunk and an old tee shirt. There isn't a need for anything fancy at this stage. That works well for me.The author writes with a very, very positive and encouraging tone, and this helps me a great deal and makes me want to do the program. The book is easy to consult quickly: it is right here on my desk and I frequently go through it as I want to refresh myself on some point.What I would like to see more of in this book:An index. Have you ever tried searching for that page that gives the URL of the author's Facebook support group? I couldn't find it. An index at the back of the book would be helpful.Advice for beginning runners who are coming to the sport partially conditioned. For example my bicycling is pretty regular and I do anything from 15 to 70 mile rides each week, all of them foot powered. I don't own an electric bike. So I have some conditioning already that I can take advantage of.How to deal with automobile traffic on streets.Overall, I highly recommend this book to beginning runners. It does present a very good structured program that can be followed for the new runner. If one has the inclination, after finishing this program, one can go on and try some of Mr. Anderson's more advanced programs. This is the foundational program. This is where we start. I'm glad I bought the book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exactly what I wanted being s newbie...
*by T***L on May 16, 2022*

I love that he is real..he covers everything in short, to the point sections that cover everything you need to get out and run. I LOVE that it is done at your own pace and you move on when you have accomplished the day or week you are on.. I am currently on week 1 (10 week program, again , at your own pace so could take longer)This book is for AnYONE who is run curious, or thinks they cannot due to size or age, and totally for someone who ran but been a while, this will get you back in. I look fiward to this journey and so happy I read this first..perfect foundation
