THE COMPLETE WOMAN RUNNER is the perfect guidebook to help women sprint into two new and exciting worlds—within the fibers of their body and within the far regions of their mind. Running has proved to be a powerful force in the lives of women who have tried it. Many women credit running with providing better muscle tone, alleviating strain and depression, increasing cardiovascular capacity, controlling weight and diet—and opening the doors to a new sense of self. Running provides a physical outlet to women who feel re-moved from the sports world. It offers an opportunity for women to realize their own physical abilities, to compete against other women of their own age and ability, or to spend solitary hours getting to be friends with themselves.

THE COMPLETE WOMAN RUNNER acquaints new runners with the pioneers in the sport, giving them an inspirational look at running before they take their first steps. It offers a practical guide for women who are starting to run and offers suggestions on how to make running a part of daily life. It acquaints the woman with her body and its special qualities that lend them-selves to distance running and endurance sports. And it intro-duces the woman contemplating running to other American women who already run—and who find that running makes them more complete women.
