Scott Morton is a blogger and a #1 International Amazon best-selling author. Scott didn't start running long distances until the age of 43. While playing indoor soccer in his forties, he discovered that he had more running endurance than other players his age.

While on a trip to Las Vegas he read an article about running a half marathon down the Strip in Las Vegas. He focused his efforts on training to be able to run down the Vegas Strip in November of that year. Due to conflicts with scheduling, he did not run the half marathon in Las Vegas. Instead, he ran an extremely hilly local half marathon and placed 2nd in his age group.

Coach Scott's Credentials:

- RRCA Certified Running Coach (Level 2)

- RRCA Certified Youth Running Coach

- NASM CPT (Certified Personal Trainer).

- NASM CNC (Certified Nutrition Coach)

- NASM WLS (Weight Loss Specialist)

- licensed youth U.S. Soccer coach

He enjoys being a father of 3 and snowboarding in the winter. He has since completed 34 5Ks, four 10Ks, one 15K (trail run with 1,000 feet elevation gain), 17 half marathons, and 1 marathon. Scott has placed both 1st and 2nd in his age group for four of his half-marathon races. After running his first marathon, he realized that running was now his passion and wanted to help other runners achieve similar goals.

Join him as a half marathon race finisher! Help him crush his goal of helping over 1 million people complete their first race!

His book, Beginner's Guide to Half Marathons, has become a #1 International Amazon Bestseller in the U.S., U.K., and Mexico.

I used the 5k to 10k plan and It really worked! So I thought maybe I can push myself to next stage and decided to follow another of Scott’s plans - I’ve been toying with half marathon but after reading this book, I feel equipped to start training and go for it!

1.0 out of 5 stars WASTE OF MONEY! DON’T BOTHER!!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 7, 2019
Verified Purchase
I am running my first half marathon in 4 months and after seeing 5* reviews on this book, I decided to buy it. What a waste of money!!! It says it’s 74 pages but there are only about 27 pages of text/info relating to the book. The majority of pages are either blank title pages or are shameless “sneak peaks” of several other books the author has written.

I learnt nothing from this book (which was incidentally full of typos!) other than there are far better ways to waste a tenner! Buyer beware!! I would have given it 0 stars if I could (and asked for a refund!)
