About the Product
Avid runners often define their best runs in terms of breaking records
and conquering distances, but they intuitively know that this only
begins to describe their experiences. Through more than 40 years of
training and competing, Joe Henderson has gained an understanding of
what really defines the best running experiences and has developed
techniques to achieve them.
Henderson-America’s premier running writer-has produced perhaps his finest work in Best Runs.
He shares his experiences and expertise, offering advice on how you can
enhance your running and reap rewards beyond improved running times and
race results.
Best Runs contains more than 100 essays that will inform,
inspire, and amuse all readers, from fitness runners to hardcore
competitors. Each of the book’s 25 chapters serves as a valuable lesson
in running. You’ll find entertaining tales and proven advice on how to
• reduce the time pressures associated with training and racing;
• decrease down-time by listening to your heart and early warning signals;
• follow an optimal running diet;
• reduce your anxiety before races;
• improve long distance running techniques;
• enjoy running into your later years; and
• much, much more.
Running is about much more than going farther and faster. It’s about having your best possible experience every time out. Best Runs
provides inspiration, insights, and training tips to ensure that you
reach your fullest potential. Read it and have your best run yet!
About the Author
Joe Henderson has made a career of promoting consistency and longevity in running-through his books, his writings in Runner’s World, and his talks at races. He has lived that message as both a runner and writer.
Born in Illinois in 1943, he began running in Iowa 14 years later. And
three years after that, he started writing about the sport. Henderson,
a graduate of Drake University, has run more than 700 races. Their
distances range from less than 100 meters to more than 100 kilometers.
In addition to his long-time column in Runner’s World, he has written more than a dozen books on running (listed on opposite page), and he publishes the newsletter Running Commentary. He is a former editor of Runner’s World and a onetime staff writer for Track & Field News.
The Road Runners Club of America has twice honored him as Journalist of
the Year. He also is a member of the RRCA’s Hall of Fame.
Henderson runs and writes from his home base in Eugene, Oregon. His wife, Barbara Shaw, is also a published writer.
