4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent explanation of injuries runner tend to get, 25 Oct 2000
By Blue Bird (West Virginia) - See all my reviews
This is a short, clear presentation of different injuries runners tend to get, and also includes some introductory material on anatomy, physiology, and other topics of interest. Worth while.
