"Murray Weisenfeld loves working with runners and dealing with their problems. His book is filled with evidence of that care and interest. I found the pages packed with practical, hard to find, and hard earned information for the injured runner."--Dr. George Sheehan, author of Running and Being

"No one understands runners' injuries like Murray Weisenfeld-- and he explains it all simply, with no medicalese. He tells you, step by step, how to diagnose your aches and pains and precisely how to treat them yourself."--Fred Lebow, President of the New York Road Runners' Club

"The Runners' Repair Manual is full of useful tips on the prevention and cure of running injuries that took me years to learn. Easy to work into any normal, busy and demanding life, Murray Weisenfeld's commonsense advice will help to keep runners running by showing them how to treat themselves effectively."--Craig Virgin, Winner of 10,000-meter event, U.S. Olympic Trials, 1980

"In simple and succinct terms, Dr. Weisenfeld discusses the most common and often most nagging running injuries, their causes, treatments, and possible measures to prevent them. Most importantly, The Runners' Repair Manual teaches runners to be aware of their bodies' signals and how to read them to minimize the risk of injury."--Ellison Goodall, International cross country competitor

"There's nothing more depressing to a runner than having an injury that keeps you from running. Dr. Weisenfeld's book can minimize, reduce, or help eliminate those horrible non-running days by telling you exactly how to handle virtually all the injuries we runners suffer."--Kathy Switzer, First Woman to run in the Boston Marathon

"I have acquired many aches and pains over the years without knowing their causes or their cures. But after reading The Runners' Repair Manual, everything seems clear and simple. Dr. Weisenfeld's book is a very handy and beneficial guide for all joggers, runners and even world class racers."--Don Paige, Winner of 800-meter event, U.S. Olympic Trials, 1980

5A book to have  Sep 07, 2008
This is the book to have on how to keep your feet, knees, and any other body parts working as well as they can. Great diagnosis on whatever ails you as a runner. Timeless and still universally useful regardless of how old the book is. This is my second copy in the last 15 or so years.

5Got me through my first half marathon  Feb 08, 2008
This book was recommended to me by a co-worker and it got me through my first half marathon. I still use it as a reference. I've since gifted it to several friends who also run.

5An absolute must read for runners  Sep 28, 2007
I so wish I had this book when I just started running! It should have helped me prevent so many painful experiences as well as bills from physiotherapy... This book covers everything from choosing the correct shoes and injury preventing techniques to diagnosing and treating foot and leg injuries. The writer seemed very knowledgeable and he certainly helped me. With his simple advices I can run long distances again without pain and I couldn't do it in almost a year! I had no idea there are so many things that need attention when running safely. Think all runners need this knowledge.
