review 1: Train Like a Mother follows up with more specific information on racing different distances and detailed training plans for each distance. There is a "finish it" and an "own it" plan each for 5K, 10K, half-marathon, and marathon distances. In addition, there is more information on topics like nutrition and strength training, and more great stories and anecdotes.The authors have developed a big social media following (website, Facebook, Twitter, podcast, etc) and I was a bit hesitant to jump on some trendy mother-runner bandwagon. But the authors are so down-to-earth and relatable and likable that it's easy to see why they are so popular.
review 2: I liked this book better than the first one - Run Like a Mother. It might have been partly due to the fact that
... more I read a majority of the book while running on my treadmill trying to get ready for a half marathon. It was too cold to run outside and running on the treadmill is so boring and reading this helped me get through that. I actually thought that this book contained more useful advice than the first book as well. less

Decent read. Fun little vignettes about running. TMI at times, which you know I love. :-)
