Book Reviews of Race Walk Like A Champion: Second Edition
Book Review: Not quite what I expected
Summary: 3 Stars
Mixed feelings about this book. Arrived timely. Great cover. Go inside and the material seems very outdated. The book is in black and white, appears to be bound photocopies, very dark so images are hard to see and they seem to be from the 80's. Because form is so important in RW, clear, crisp, color pics would have been best. The quality is not worth the price paid. However, I will give it a try. There are only a few RW books out there. 65 of the 176 pages are devoted to people and their RW records but 3 pages are devoted to shoes. Pictures of arches but no related recommendations. A bit disappointed.
