One of the biggest challenges as an amateur elite runner is the workload balance between training and managing a career as an active-duty Marine, all while holding off injuries. Puleo's knowledge and advocacy for strength training have been force multipliers in allowing me to run fewer miles, train smarter, and continually push my boundaries as a distance runner. This book is a great addition to any athlete's library."</i></p><p><b>Major Christine M.
