The first few chapters are new agey "connect with the magnetic fields of the earth" kind of hooey, but if you can wade through that (or skim fast), then the book gets pretty good. Its discussion of mechanics, exercises, how to build up your foot, injuries - all are good. The discussion of food and nutrition is very basic: eat organic, eat local; nothing different for a runner than for any other human need. The author makes goofy outlandish statements right and left that make a reader wonder if there's any truth to that phrase (hot peppers are a superfood! sugar is the only food that makes you want to eat more of it!) I stopped making notes for things I wanted to fact-check after a while - they all might be true, but the author doesn't support any of it, beyond a quasi-religious enthusiasm from his personal experience.
