Scott Jurek is one of the world's best known and most beloved ultrarunners. Renowned for his remarkable endurance and speed, accomplished on a vegan diet, he's finished first in nearly all of ultrarunning's elite events over the course of his career. But after two decades of racing, training, speaking, and touring, Jurek felt an urgent need to discover something new about himself. He embarked on a wholly unique challenge, one that would force him to grow as a person and as an athlete: breaking the speed record for the Appalachian Trail.

Publisher's Summary
Dovetailing on the success of Training for the New Alpinism and Patagonia's own emphasis on all mountain use, Training for the Uphill Athlete translates theory into methodology to allow you to write your own training plans and coach yourself to endurance goals.
Steve House, one of the best mountaineers, and his coach Scott Johnston, an Olympic-level cross country ski coach, along with Kilian Jornet, hands down best endurance athlete at this time, present training principles for the multisport mountain athlete who regularly participates in a mix of distance running, ski mountaineering, and other endurance sports that require optimum fitness and customized strength.
This is an authoritative but accessible training manual for athletes and coaches who feel most alive in the mountains or pushing the uphill ascent. Distance running, ski mountaineering, skimo, and skyrunning are becoming increasingly popular all over the world, and are often undertaken by the same person during a single year. This book collects the scientifically backed and athlete-tested wisdom and experience of three of the best uphill athletes and coaches and extrapolates both to educate outdoor athletes of all stripes to perform their best.

unfortunately, this book is a sucker deal
contrary to technical books with important graphies and tables, this one doesn't supply a pdf which means...you ALSO need to buy the print or ebook.
Sucker deal, too bad because book is good. don't buy it twice. go to the print or ebook directly.

Almost Perfect
*Buy the print version - There is a lot of content missing from the audible that could be remedied with a PDF.
A near perfect guide to building human endurance.

Beaucoup d’informations!!
J’aurais apprécié avoir accès au guide de référence à partir de l’application Audible. Le guide ne fait pas partie de ce livre audio. Il semble que nous devions nous le procurer en plus. Un inconvénient mais pas un problème. Je recommande fortement ce livre.

Not adapted for Audio
The last 20% of the book is exercises and Training tables which are not adapted for the audio version. I feel like getting the paper book is worth it this time.
No attached pdf available.
