Alle Exemplare der Ausgabe mit dieser ISBN anzeigen:Arthur Lydiard is the most influential and successful running coach of the twentieth century. In 1960 he burst into prominence at the Rome Olympics when two of his proteges, Peter Snell and Murray Halberg, won Olympic gold medals on the same day. He had turned unpromising athletes into Olympic champions, and he said he could do it again and again, if only his methods, which involved building stamina and fitness through endurance running, were followed. In the next few years thousands of people heeded his word. The jogging movement was born. Meanwhile, Snell went on to break a bucketful of world records, and exceeded his Rome success by winning two gold medals at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. But at home, Lydiard's abrasive personality upset athletics officials and he fell out of favour. New Zealand's loss became the world's gain. Lydiard created a team of world-beating runners in Finland, then went on to coach in Mexico, Venezuela and in dozens of other countries around the world. Every year he lectures in the United States, and even this year, at the age of 86, he is returning there for another lecture tour. Garth Gilmour tells the full story of Lydiard's amazing career, much of it in the coach's own words. It is a story that no keen sports follower will want to be without.

"Arthur Lydiard is the most successful and influential running coach of the last fifty years. He burst into prominence at the Rome Olympics in 1960 when two of his proteges, Peter Snell and Murray Halberg, won Olympic gold medals on the same day. His team of runners, trained to brilliance, went on to dominate international track and marathon running for two decades. During this time he developed and perfected his revolutionary endurance-based training system designed to help any athlete become a better runner. Worldwide adoption of his technique by other running coaches, and by many coaches in other sports, has seen Lydiard-conditioned athletes winning Olympic, international and national titles and breaking records by the score. Lydiard also made possibly the greatest individual contribution to world health and fitness in history: his promotion of jogging has influenced millions of people around the globe. Now, with his long-time friend and co-author Garth Gilmour, he tells the full story of his remarkable life, from his early years in New Zealand to his coaching experiences in Finland, Mexico, Venezuela and elsewhere around the world. The indefatigable Lydiard, now in his mid-eighties, still coaches and lectures extensively, especially in the United States. One of just 20 holders of New Zealand's highest honour, the Order of New Zealand, he has also been awarded Finland's premier honour, the White Star." ; 8vo. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9823
