Whether you're a 12-year-old lacing up for your first parkrun, a parent wondering how to support your child's training, or a coach building a squad of future champions - Run to Succeed is the book you've been waiting for.
Most running books are written for adult competitors. This one starts where it should: with the young athlete at the centre, supported by everyone around them.
What's Inside - 58 Chapters Across 8 Sections:- Own the Sport - running history, events, distances, and how to get started
- Own Your Kit - shoes, clothing, GPS watches, and gear that actually matters
- Master Your Technique - running form, cadence, posture, and injury prevention
- Build the Engine - aerobic base, threshold training, speed work, and periodisation
- Fuel the Machine - nutrition and hydration for growing athletes
- Become the Athlete - sleep, mental skills, goal-setting, and resilience
- Race Smart - road races, track, cross country, parkrun, and race-day tactics
- Go Further - moving to longer distances, clubs, and athletic development
- Junior Athletes (12-18): training plans, benchmark times, progression ladders
- Parents: how to support without over-coaching, injury warning signs, race-day tips
- Coaches: session structures, squad planning, athlete development frameworks
- Adult Beginners: start-from-scratch 8-week plans, parkrun guide, first 5K
The To Succeed Coaching Team brings together coaching expertise, sports science, and real-world running experience in one definitive guide. Benchmark data, training plans, and case studies are drawn from real athletes and published sources - no invented numbers, no generic advice.
If you want your athlete to love running and get better at it - this is the book.
