Running & Walking for Women Over 40 de Kathrine Switzer
This was a fantastic book to get me motivated to get up and move!
A pretty basic book, with a fair amount of info to get started.
I really like that it is geared for women over 40, and includes a lot of general info like training plans, guides to stretching, clothing and also includes indoor work outs, if you can't get outside.
I didn't like the nutritional information. I have been doing lots of reading on that subject lately and find the food pyramid outdated and incorrect.
The info on hormone replacement therapy was cautionary but the author seems to encourage it. I personally am very opposed.
The thing I found extremely offensive was to profile several breeds of dogs as dangerous, or as ones to watch out for while walking or running. It is not ever the fault of breed of dog, it is always the fault of the environment they are kept in, or how they were treated (I don't want to say trained) by humans. Many small dogs are more vicious than the breeds the author mentions.… (mais)
