I want to get some more focus into my training and so I was thinking about Joe Friel's books.
My aim is to improve fitness for mtb enduro events (100km, 8hr, team 24hr maybe) and I am just a (very) average punter)
I figured that the mountain bike book would be better because it should be more relevant, but the one I found in the bookshop was last published in the year 2000. I would have thought that there would have been some improvements in thinking/knowledge about training in almost 10 years.
The Road/general one is on the 4th edition, most recently published this year, but obviously more relevant to road riding (which I do only for training, no racing)
So what do people recommend? Or is there another better book or online option, or personal training plan?
