Stretching for running.
Excellent, compact, well structured little book. A great addition for every sportsperson, very useful resource for every sports teacher.

Nothing new
I am a fairly experienced runner and found nothing new about stretching in this book; all the usual techniques. Actually sent it back for a refund as I was so disappointed.
