5k and 10k Training

5k and 10k Training by Brian Clarke is a great book. It's not interesting, and it doesn't have a story. But, it's great to learn how to train for races. I chose that book because I think it will help me become a better runner, and help me in my races that i run.

The book has many different chapters in it. It has how to train, how to run, your strides, how your arms should be, what you should eat before a race, and more. I personally think it really helped me in my last 5k that I did. It also has different workouts you can try to get faster.

Two things I liked about the book is how it helps you, and how detailed it is on how your stride should be and how you should train. I didn't like how the book was set up, and how sometimes it was confusing. I also didn't like how it wasn't for just a mile, it was for way longer distences. I would reccomend this to anyone who is a runner, or who wants to be.
