A number of you have contacted me asking for updates on the Sprinter?s Compendium. I happy to report the book has been moving along nicely and now is over 330 pages! My goal is to get the book up to 500 pages this summer. After a number of conversations with Christopher Glaeser from FreeLap he helped to persuaded me to set a hard deadline for this summer. I have set the release date for the Sprinter?s Compendium for this coming fall. The book will be print only. I hope this will cut down on piracy.
