The Performance Training Journal
Since Jason started running in 1998, he's kept a hardcopy training journal. Holding a tangible log, writing in it daily, and reflecting on the ups and downs of running is a surefire way to improve. You'll learn to focus on the training metrics that matter, prioritize optimism in your running, focus on long-term progress, and reflect on what's actually helping you run faster.
With a no-frills, functional design, the Performance Training Journal includes coaching advice on racing, injury prevention, strength training, and more. It will guide you through race scheduling, how to plan your race morning, the best workouts for endurance runners, and encourage you to track your personal bests over time. Most importantly, you have the space to make this journal your own whether you're a new runner or a professional, a trail or road runner, or a mid-distance specialist or ultra marathoner.
A detailed, performance-oriented training journal is one of the most effective and valuable training tools available. Don't just track your running, learn from it with the Performance Training Journal!
