Scott FaubleInside a Marathon: An All-Access Pass to a Top-10 Finish at NYC, Featuring a new Boston Marathon Chapter

Inspirational and educational peek behind the curtain at the training approach taken by an elite marathoner and his elite coach. Very transparent, and a fun easy read.

Very interesting approach to book - each chapter has 3 Parts and each chapter is based on one week of training. The parts of each chapter are-The training log- the coaches perspective- the runners perspective

Excellent book that will be of interest to any distance runner. Seeing inside the training and thoughts of an elite marathoner both from his perspective and from that of his coach provides a unique look into the high level running world. It’s an easy read and one that was hard to put down. Highly recommend!

An unfiltered behind the scenes look of an elite athletes preparation for the NYC marathon. Fascinating insights into the relationship between coach and athlete and the team concept in what outwardly appears to be a solo sport. So many nuggets of wisdom and I need my burrito fix after reading it (inside joke).

This book lays out what it takes to be great in the marathon. If you are looking for insights into training as well as motivation towards your next race I highly recommend this book. It was fun to read and I’m sad it’s over. Go Scott!

Training for and running a marathon is hard. Sometimes we view the elite runners differently. Maybe they don’t hurt as much as we do. Maybe they don’t have to work as hard to get a result. Ben and Scott shatter any thought of that.

If you run marathons, or think you want to, read this book. It's funny, insightful, and it's inspiring. Kudos to coach and runner for this fine read.

I strongly recommend to read especially to all who are running. Fantastic insight into the sports training of a top athlete. very beneficial book.

Great insider view of a coach and athlete and the level of training required for elite marathoning

Se você leu Running the Dream, do Matt Fitzgerald, vai gostar muito desse livro. Um diário de corrida detalhado no ciclo de maratona de Scott Faubles para a maratona de NY. Valeu muito a pena!

An amazing view in the world of a pro marathon runner but with so many take aways for the recreational runner or even non-runner. The training plans, insights and thoughts, but more importantly the mental aspects - trust the process, stay present, commit. Great stuff.

A great inside to the NAZ elite lifestyle. Faubs 2 x 2:09 marathoner and 7th in New York.

This is not a book to help you train for a marathon. But if you are a runner and are curious to know what training looks, feels and smells like when done at an elite level then this is a great book. The training plan is outlined in great detail and transparency, and each week of training is described from both the athlete and coaches perspective. It provides a superb insight from a technical perspective, but it also makes for a very compelling read to follow the 18 week journey which culminates in the race. While not a ‘how to...’ guide, nor out and out story, this format is perfect for telling the story of what it takes to push yourself to the limits, and the challenges along the way. Told from the perspective of both athlete and coach it is fascinating to compare the two sides of the same story. All coaches could learn a thing or two from Ben Rosario on how to push, motivate and bring out the best in their athletes. This is a gift to distance runners, both aspiring and professional alike. The transparency, openness and vulnerability shown demonstrates that these guys are confident leaders in their fields. Highly recommend. I shall be rooting for these guys from now on.
