Review of 'ChiRunning' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

I'd like to give this book two stars for the writing, five stars for the technique itself, so I'm going to compromise on four.

Danny Dreyer is definitely on to something with his emphasis on form over externally imposed speed goals, and it's so refreshing to read a book that acknowledges running is something you can do because it's fun, not something you do to prove something or win something or self-flagellation to lose weight. And I found it very helpful that instead of just giving pointers on form the book teaches practical techniques to make sure you follow them, using a mirror to learn to be aware of the position of your body, setting a timer to "check in" every five minutes. I've tried using some of the techniques on my usual run and even though I'm not very good at it yet it has made a noticeable difference …
