Honestly, one of the best running books out there!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I humbly submit my review: I've continued running for a few years but not until recently have I logged some serious mileage. I've had this book for a few years and read maybe 20 running books and quite a few of the running magazines. Now, that I am devoting more time to it; I've got to say this is one of the best books out there, my copy dated 1976 is an absolute classic. The best thing that I found in this book was the tip of putting brewer's yeast into my diet. There are so many "health foods" out there, miso, algaes like spirulina, bee pollen etcetera but brewer's yeast is one of the best energizers around. Sure I'd heard about it but was not informed on it's benefits. That is just one example of the many helpful ideas this book has. As far as "How to" books, it is up there with "The complete book of running" and "New York Runners Club Marathon Book."
I wrote it

I wrote The Joy of Running which was published by Lippincott in 1976. Since then I have pursued the concept of Paleoanalysis which I mentioned in TJOR. I notce that many people still run.I wonder of anyone is interested in my later discoveries.
Thaddeus Kostrubala tells the reader how running can better
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
The Joy of Running is a product of the 1970's that is as relevant today as in the mid-70's. Dr. Kostrubala shows the reader--most convincingly, I feel--how running and general exercise can not only bolster one's cardiovascular system, but can also help lift such burdens as clinical depression. Dr. Kostrubala's writing is clear,and his enthusisasm is evident on every page.
