My hubby is training for his first IM in Sept. he has done a HIM.

I am thinking about getting him The Big Book of Endurance Training and Racing, but wondering if anyone has any better suggestions?

I read "You are an Ironman"
Pretty good, It follows 6 indivduals of different abilities and goals through their training and racing IM AZ.
Your husband will probably be able to relate to one of the people in the book.

Edit: This is not a training book, just a good read about others training for IM.
