Last year the brothers, along with Luke Humphrey, an exercise physiologist and one of their coaches, published Hansons Marathon Method.

"New York Times" You might expect a training program devised by the Hanson brothers, Keith and Kevin, to be a little different than the usual rehashing of principles and schedules. Given the success of athletes from the Hansons-Brooks Distance Project, you wouldnt be surprised if it was effective, too. "Runners World" Whether youre a first-time half-marathoner or want to improve your PR, this book is worth a read. "Competitor magazine" Hansons Half-Marathon Method lays out an approach that can work for anyone from a runner whos doing a charity run with the goal of just finishing to a highly competitive runner trying to PR. "The Runivore" Kevin and Keith Hanson have years of experience coaching athletes at many levels. Their knowledge of the sport is evident in their ability to continually develop athletes and take them to the next level. In addition, Luke Humphreys science background coupled with being a top-tier marathoner brings a unique and beneficial perspective to training. Not only can Luke provide the scientific approach to the training methods, but hes done the workouts and had successful results. The results have been proven at every level, from the beginner to the elite, the Hansons training system works. With the coaching experience of Kevin and Keith and the science background Luke brings to the table, you have an incredible wealth of knowledge, and arguably one of the best marathon coaching teams in the country. Desiree Linden, Olympic marathoner Keith and Kevin Hanson, through their passion for the sport of distance running, have developed an amazing history of successful coaching with the Hansons-Brooks Distance Project. Their insights into their individual athletes and coaching philosophies have enabled athletes like Desi Davila and Brian Sell to successfully compete on the worlds greatest running stages. Even more impressive is the development of what many elite coaches would call marginally talented runners who the Hansons have coached up to being national-caliber competitors. Many coaches have systems, but the key to success is the athletes belief in that system. That comes with trust. The athletes trust the process and the people directing that process. Luke Humphrey adds the science behind the process, but the implementation of the process is an art perfected one athlete at a time.
