"Chi Marathon is the perfect plan for sustainable running for all
ages, abilities and for all distances, whether you enter an event
or not." --Mark Cucuzzella, MD, Professor, West Virginia University
School of Medicine
"Chi Marathon emphasizes the mental and physical components of
running and encourages runners to be aware of how their bodies are
responding during a run. The tone of the book is positive, and it
supports the idea that proper technique is the key to pain-free
running. The Dreyers expertly detail how to prepare for a
race...many runners are likely to find value in the Dreyers'
program." --Booklist
"Learning the easiest way to run a marathon--like finding the
easiest way to swim one--isn't undemanding. It's exacting, in place
of exhausting. It requires critical, not reflexive, thinking. But
that sort of difficulty is the sort that leads to Mastery,
Happiness, and even a high-functioning brain. Chi Running is on the
cutting edge of how people will pursue physical, mental and
spiritual fitness in the 21st Century." --Terry Laughlin, author of
Total Immersion: The Revolutionary Way to Swim Better, Faster and
Easier
"Running is meant to be enjoyed, not endured. Thanks to Danny
Dreyer you can release your fear of injury so that you can enjoy
what is important--the ability to get out into the open air and do
what is so natural, pacifying, and nourishing to the mind and
body." --Catherine McKiernan, former Olympian, world cross-country
champion, and winner of the London, Amsterdam, and Berlin
marathons
"The Dryers don't believe in "no pain, no gain" for runners.
Instead, their holistic approach is a smarter and healthier way for
runners to fully develop balanced body mechanics for an injury-free
life. The old school, conventional running trends have created too
much ill-health and pain for all athletes, but Chi Marathon changes
all that. Regardless of your age and experience, you'll learn how
to run efficiently from head to toe. The result is more enjoyable,
and you will now finish marathons and other endurance races feeling
refreshed rather than wasted." --Dr. Philip Maffetone, author of
The Big Book of Endurance Training and Racing
