Hey all ! I just set a new mile PB of 5:17, and now i am going to move on to 5k base, and throw a mile tt somewhere in there (to sneak under 5). A lot of people recommend Jack Daniel's Running Formula, (specifically #2) and so i was wondering if before i spent the money to get it if i could find it anywhere for free ?
Thanks -EGF :)
You could check thrift stores once they reopen. Bought my copy there for $1.
Oh, and also what are some good workouts for if i get really tired after 800m, i was actually on pace for a 5:09, but i fell off a ton in the 2nd to last 400, and it came down to my kick to get it back (1:15 last 400).
I was thinking like 6-8x800m equal recovery, but at halfway, go 2 seconds faster...
something like that

Thanks, which one did you get yours at ? Any recommendations or just check a few ?
Dude, it is less than 5 bucks used on ebay. Just buy a copy.

Sorry man, i am 14 and dont have a steady way to make money (besides when i used to take out the water bottles at the recycling center), and so i need to save as much money as possible. if i bought something for 5 bucks and i found out it was free i would be very sad ;(

Jack Daniels is fun to read, but I wouldn't take it as gospel. Most people I know don't do the complete program, adjusting small things here and there to better suit them. Make sure you do what's right for your development. Since you're 14 you might be better served getting in some solid mileage to get stronger.

5 dollars. Are you cereal?
Have you tried checking it out from a library?
Yes. It's very likely freely available at your public library. Possibly your school library as well. See if either one is providing books to patrons.
If not, remember your parents love you and are willing to do a lot more than buy books for your education and welfare. Ask them if they'll order a book for less than $5 used.
