Summary: Motivating, Information-Packed
Comment: This is one of the most inspirational and informative books I have ever read.
My son bought this book to train for a triathlon (he followed Eric Harr's pro career closely and idolized him), and I found the book sitting in the living room. He reads the thing constantly!
Even though I don't know a thing about triathloning, it is so easy to get drawn into this book and even into possibly doing one of these things.
Eric Harr covers everything in this book, from overcoming excuses (I have lots of those), to how to design a workout program to how to eat, to how to stay motivated, really motivated. That's where this guy excels: motivation. Making you want to get up off the couch and go for it. I am here to tell you that I'm a 100% sedentary guy and I typically hate exercise. Eric Harr succeeds in making me CONSIDER this triathlon thing. And I have to tell you, I'm almost excited about the idea. The book gets you thinking!!
Eric Harr's Triathlon Training in Four Hours a Week is a great book, an easy read, very motivational, very information-packed and it will spark something in you. It will make you wonder if you can do this triathlon thing and it makes you imagine all the positives that will come with it. It also shows you how to accomplish the goal. I recommend it to all.
Now, maybe I'll steal Harr's book from my son -- and do the triathlon and challenge my son to the finish line...

Summary: Book Didn't Just Change My Life...It SAVED My Life!
Comment: I was recently diagnosed with Type II Diabetes, after being overweight and eating too much sugar for years. This was a devastating blow to me, emotionally and physically.
My doctor actually suggested I pick up a copy of Eric Harr's book -- to work my way slowly back to exercise. I began with the basic, Level I program in the book and it was a nice, gradual process. I am feeling so good these days. My doctor says my "good cholesterol" is up and "bad" is down. I've lost 14 pounds and I am aiming for my first triathlon in 3 weeks.
I feel like Eric Harr's book has saved my life, because I used to hate exercise and I always ate poorly. Now, I'm on a new track because of this book. I can feel myself LIVING again.
If you want to change your life -- and have fun learning how to be healthy again -- buy this book. It is a lifesaver.

Summary: Great Book!
Comment: This is the perfect book for the beginning triathlete or even the recreational/working triathlete. The book focuses more on using your head for training instead of joining your local running club for sprint sessions, and I can claim to that. A clydesdale swimmer for 12 years, I was suddenly lapping everyone by the 'chest push' advice and felt like I was cruising in the water with little effort. The book focuses on spiritual efficiency, and building on what you can do with your god given abilities rather than a mentality of tendon crunching, muscle wrenching, lung bloating and crying god training.
