These two books resulted in thousands of success stories and represent a lifetime of experience and knowledge by Scott Johnston. They are an essential addition to any mountain and endurance athlete’s collection, a reference manual you’ll keep coming back to. They’re an affordable way to dive deep into Evoke’s training methodologies, whether you’re working with one of our coaches or DIY-ing your own training.
