Many of today's beginning runners are turning to running as part of an overall fitness program designed to improve health and alleviate stress. Now they can also turn to Alberto Salazar's Guide to Running, available for the first time in paperback. Former marathon world-record-holder Alberto Salazar, with longtime runner and author Richard Lovett, offers a sensible, balanced approach for people enlisting in the new "second running boom." It is unique in that it recommends a gradual start-up program complemented by other exercise regimes. This is the program that revitalized the hard-running and often injured Salazar. This gentle approach, from a world-class runner who was once synonymous with overtraining injuries and burnout, will command attention. Salazar, the only runner ever to win the New York and Boston Marathons in the same year (he won three New York Marathons in a row), was renowned for a grueling training schedule that had him running as many as 130 miles a week. A fierce competitor who once was given the last rites of the Catholic Church at the finish of a race in which he pushed himself to exhaustion, Salazar had a relatively short time at the top because of a series of debilitating injuries. Now in his 40s, Salazar rarely runs more than 5 miles at a time, and is running injury-free and enjoying it. Alberto Salazar's Guide to Running is based on a year-long program designed to build the beginning runner's weekly distance to 15 to 20 miles - a relatively low distance. The Salazar program shows that a 20-minute two- or three-mile run can be just as beneficial as a longer, harder run. And it shows that complementing a running program with other aerobic and strength-building activities such as bicycling, cross-country skiing, rowing, weight-training, or even hiking can improve one's running. Alberto Salazar's Guide to Running will feature anecdotal sidebars from the running experiences of Salazar, who set one world and six U.S. records Alberto Salazar's Guide to Running will also attract experienced runners looking to avoid injuries and inject new life into their pastime. For those runners who successfully complete the first year-program, the books offers advice to expand and enrich their experiences, including discussions on trail running, winter training, cross-training, and increasing distance. But all in the context of keeping the experience enjoyable and free from stress.

14 Minutes: A Running Legend's Life and Death and Life

In 2007, after collapsing on a practice field at the Nike campus, champion marathoner Alberto Salazar's heart stopped beating for 14 minutes. Over the crucial moments that followed, rescuers administered CPR to feed oxygen to his brain and EMTs shocked his heart eight times with defibrillator paddles. He was clinically dead. But miraculously, Salazar was back at the Nike campus coaching his runners just nine days later. Salazar had faced death before, but he survived that and numerous other harrowing episodes thanks to his raw physical talent, maniacal training habits, and sheer will, as well as—he strongly believes—divine grace. In 14 Minutes, Salazar chronicles in spellbinding detail how a shy, skinny Cuban-American kid from the suburbs of Boston was transformed into the greatest marathon runner of his era. For the first time, he reveals his tempestuous relationship with his father, a former ally of Fidel Castro; his early running life in high school with the Greater Boston Track Club; his unhealthy obsession to train through pain; the dramatic wins in New York, Boston, and South Africa; and how surviving 14 minutes of death taught him to live again.

Business and Society provides a broad historical analysis of the spread of capitalism and the foundation of the corporate revolution in the late nineteenth century, while examining the challenges of regulation and ethics in contemporary business. In addition, it examines how corporate power and capitalism might be resisted, outlining a range of alternatives, from the social economy to new forms of open access or commons ownership. Written in a clear, accessible style, Business and Society offers an approachable introduction to a variety of perspectives from sociological, geographical, heterodox economic, ethical, political, legal and historical contexts.
