Summary: Words From The Master
Comment: Joe Newton is the GOLD STANDARD when it comes to coaching high school cross country. Year in and year out his teams challenge for state and national titles. This book is not as good as the "Long Green Line" but that is THE book on high school cross country. This book stands by itself as an excellent, practical guide for coach, fan and runner. It is broken into easy to read sections and full of interesting antedotes. Joe Newton gives solid insight into his highly successful progam.

Summary: Running With Newton
Comment: Coach Joe Newton is a great coach, infact, I have ran for him, his coaching is the best that you could wish for. If I were buying this just by his track record it would be highly recomended! He is without doubt in my mind the best coach of Cross Crunty in history, if not all sports.

Summary: Overworked in Illinois
Comment: While this is a revolutionary book for it's type (there are not many guides to coaching cross country) I think that there is an underlying flaw with coach Newton's philosophy. From what I read of Newton's workout chart, it seems that he over works his runners. While this does get quality results and fast runners, it is not working in the runners best interest. High schoolers who are worked too much get burnt out easily and are overlooked by college cross country coaches.
