I have canova's boook. it is excellent and a great buy for a serious marathon runner. its short (100p), cheap (12euro from iaaf website) and doesnt attempt to cater for middle-of-the-road types. This is hardcore elite traning manual with plenty of specific examples and detailed training programmes. Couldnt recommend it more.
Topics it doesnt cover ...
1/ Nutrition
2/ Tapers
Where can you purchase books from the IAAF website? I didn't see that section on IAAF.org.
Here you go. Its pretty oldfashioned but open the pdf 'iaaf publ. order form' and send it off snailmail
http://www.iaaf.org/downloads/type=publications/index.html
Be very careful if you do that you specify very clearly the publ. you want. They first sent me a decathlon scoring chart!
