This is literally a dream collaboration. Two absolute experts in the coaching scene have come together to provide triathletes with a comprehensive guide for successful preparation for the Ironman distance: Joe Friel, author of the immensely popular "training bibles" in the German-speaking world, and Gordon Byrn, guru of ultra distances. It's no wonder that the result of this collaboration has been regarded for years as the most-read and most competent reference work on the subject. Now, this triathlon bestseller is available in an expanded and updated edition - and for the first time also in a German translation. Whether it's about surviving the first Ironman or setting a new personal best in long distance: Going Long ensures that every training hour pays off. Structured, scientifically based.
