Thank you again, for visiting with my daughter, Jessica Larson.  You made a huge impact on both of us.  We are enjoying your book very much, and I'm telling all the Springfield Road Runners and my LinkedIn network running friends to get a copy NOW!

We hope to see you next year when Jessica and I both run the Half-Marathon portion in Champaign, IL.  I'm looking forward to hearing you on the microphone urging us to give it our all at the finish!

Best wishes to you, and thank you for everything!

I purchased one at the Detroit Marathon and it has the best inspiring words I've ever read. It hit on so many of my obstacles.
I really enjoy it and want to get some for my friends, I will be ordering more soon.

Coach GP,
My Company First Sergeant, David Baker, allowed me to borrow your book, "Run Tall, Run Easy" 2nd Edition. He spoke very highly
about your methods and how they have helped decrease his run times. The information will be very helpful in my pursuit of completing a Full Ironman this upcoming. November. Unfortunately, I placed the book next to a water bottle that was not completely closed. It damaged the cover and the page with your signature. Is there anyway to order a replacement book with another message and signature from you? In May 2008,  after completing the Lincoln, Nebraska Marathon-2008 my First Sergeant, David Baker, qualified for the "All Guard" Marathon Team, comprised of both Army and Air Guardsmen.

More Praise for Run Tall, Run Easy, Second Edition

From Dick Beardsley 2:08.53 Marathoner, The 5th fastest time in U.S. Men's Marathon History:

"Coach GP has done it again! Runners of every caliber will benefit from this wonderful book."

From Jonathan Beverly Editor in Chief of  Running Times Magazine:

“ finally Gerard Pearlberg provides an overview of good running mechanics, strength exercises, and how to conceptualize and design a training program in Run Tall Run Easy. While not as extensive as the other volumes, Pearlberg’s few simple focus points go a long way toward correcting common errors, without having to plough through “revolutionary” jargon of some of the others….

Running Notes

An excerpt from "Run Tall, Run Easy"

Preface to the Second Edition abbreviated version:

As with my original book, you can expect plenty of simple running-mechanic advice, written in easy to follow terms that are battle tested in the trenches, so to speak.   

    In my experience as a professional coach, there are certain running ideas and thought processes that may work in the laboratory but may not necessarily stand up to the real-time, real-life challenges on the streets, tracks, and trails.

Hmm, Do I have your curiosity?, then click on this link and purchase this rapidly developing running cult book today !

             Happy Running…

            Run Tall, Run Easy,

                Coach GP.
