Excerpt from How to Sprint
Many times I have been advised to write a book on my system of preparation for a sprint race, and in response to the many requests I take great pleasure in offering this little volume to the devotees of sprinting, trusting the few little points and hints which I have mentioned in the following pages will prove interesting as well as instructive to those inclined to follow this branch of athletics. It has been my intention to constantly bear in mind the needs of the novice runner, especially the preparatory school boy, for it was at this class of institution I received my early training and to which I attribute the success I have attained on the cinder-path. It is true that although many athletes of the first class may take exceptions to what I have stated - still all that I can say to their exceptions is that the system of training which I have outlined in the following pages has been the means by which I have established world's records and won numerous championships.
