In the late 1990's when Scholastic Coach and Athletic Director reviewed this (Newton's fourth) book, they said it shows "how Joe Newton, became the most successful cross-country coach in America — winning 18 national championships, 19 state championships, and 113 conference titles in his 42 years at York H.S. in Elmhurst, IL.

"With the superlative help of the great track journalist, Joe Henderson, Newton details his famous practices, 12-week training plan, pace charts, preparations for meets, etc.

"Much more than that, however, is the dynamics of the man himself: how he inspires and motivates young people, how he implants all the virtues and beauty of sport into the lives of all his athletes. It deeply moved us, and we believe this book has a message for every coach in every sport."
