Reviews:
“I’ve known Scott since we were college rivals. If I were to write a theme for his career, I would say he has been underrated over and over again. I know when I line up next to Faubs, that his old PR doesn’t matter, and there is a kick coming for me at the end of the race. In his new book Inside A Marathon you get to see in detail how Scott and Coach Rosario prepare for what they know Scott is capable of, including the most impressive workout of my life where Scott and I run 24 miles side-by-side. Scott’s deeply competitive nature is illustrated in this book, and it demonstrates that you don’t need the world’s approval to do something amazing. “Inside A Marathon” offers training insight into one of the most successful professional teams in the US, as well as a glimpse into the life the often-times, lonely marathoner. Don’t sleep on Scott Fauble. You’re going to keep hearing his name over and over again.” – Jared Ward, 2016 Olympian
“It’s not often that we get a first-person perspective on a professional runner’s marathon buildup but that’s exactly what Ben and Scott have offered up in their unique new book, Inside a Marathon. But it’s so much more than that. Aside from sharing the X’s and O’s of Scott’s entire NYC training block, and one another’s respective thoughts on how the training was going week in and week out, this was an intimate behind-the-scenes look into the evolution of a coach-athlete relationship that highlights the importance of honesty, trust, communication and teamwork. I couldn’t put it down.” – Mario Fraioli, Coach and Author of The Morning Shakeout
