Book Reviews of Going Long: Training for Ironman-Distance Triathlons (Ultrafit Multisport Training Series)

Book Review: Ahmmm....needs more work
Summary: 3 Stars

After reading Joe Friel's Triathlete's Bible, this book looks like a puzzle. The information in it is very good, but is given in a so unstructured way, that the reader have to go back and forth to put the pieces together. It's a book that one who is getting prepared for Ironman should read, but not really needed if you have read the Bible from Friel.
