1001 Running Tips by Robbie Britton is a light-hearted and informative guide to all kinds of running.
This is no standard instruction manual – it is much more useful than that. This is a huge collection of small tips to make a real difference to your running, whether you’re just starting out and aiming to run for 30 minutes without stopping or if you’re training for your first marathon – this book will improve your running.
The myriad of topics featured include starting out, setting goals, training plans, injury, nutrition, safety, kit, running with your dog, navigation, sleep deprivation, running in all weathers, racing, fell running and music. Robbie’s unique and accessible style will keep you entertained and, most importantly, he’ll motivate you to keep enjoying running, overcome obstacles getting in your way and to become the best runner you can!

He loves to race and to help others enjoy the same experience through his coaching.
