Reviews for Running Free of Injuries: From Pain to Personal Best
A great addition to a runner's bookshelf: practical self-help from diagnosis to treatment.
Paula Radcliffe, World Record Holder for Women's Marathon A must have book for runners of all abilities. Any niggle you feel, you can be sure to find help and guidance in this fantastic book.
Laura Weightman, 1500m European and Commonwealth medallist
This book is very reassuring for all runners with aches and pains, with brilliant tips for self-diagnoses, clear indications for when you need professional help, and most importantly excercises to help you get better and back out running. I am going to pack it with my running shoes.
Louise Minchen, GB age group triathlete and BBC presenter A great reference... genuinely useful, with minimal jargon.
Women's Fitness
There are many books on injury prevention, but most make for dull reading. This one stands apart in being easy to read and having clear diagrams of injury-prevention and treatment exercises
