"I use this as a great reference book and view it as one of the gold standards for Triathlon training. I knocked off a star because I didn't read it like a normal book, but jumped around a lot to the sections I was working on or referencing at the time."
"Friel is a very calculating author and if you follow his program, you will see excellent results. The only problem is trying to follow his rigorous schedule. While more experienced Triathletes with fairly flexible schedules may not have a problem, those who work long hours or are not very strong may have a tough time following it. Either way, I think this is a good read for any Triathlete, especially if you have read the "other" books and are thinking about doing some longer distance races like half or full Ironmans."
