This is the only book that presents training principles for athletes who regularly participate in distance running, ski mountaineering, skimo, and other sports that require optimum fitness and customized strength. Trail running, ski mountaineering, skimo, and ultrarunning are increasingly popular all over the world. This book collects the scientifically backed and athelete-tested wisdom and experience of the best uphill athletes and educates outdoor athletes to develop plans to perform their best." --Back cover.
