Praise for Anatomy for Runners by Jay Dicharry "This is the best
resource on running biomechanics and injury prevention. The
corrective exercises have become part of my training routine,
improved my performance, and reduced my injuries."--Alan Webb,
American record holder in the mile (3:46.91)
Praise for Jay Dicharry "Jay Dicharry integrates the science of how
the body moves with his extensive knowledge of runners and their

unique exercises which will make you a better runner."--Jonathan

"I have had the opportunity to work closely with Jay Dicharry since
2013. We first met as I was recovering from a lower leg stress
fracture. With Jay's detailed guidance, enthusiasm for strength
training, and methodical plan I was able to go from unable to run
to setting a course marathon PR at the Ironman World Championships
in 2013. Since that time Jay has helped me succeed in all areas of
my triathlon training. I have had the opportunity to closely follow
Jays strength program that has been tailored to the different parts
of my training cycle. The things I enjoy most about Jay's strength
program are that it is applicable to swim, bike, run, it is easy to
follow, it allows for progression as I improve and it's time
efficient."--Linsey Corbin, professional triathlete and 5-time
Ironman Champion
"I would not have been able to reach peak performance in 2016
Olympic Trials and Olympics had it not been for the foundational
work with Jay. Period. I cannot overstate the impact Jay has had on
my running career."--Kate Grace, Olympic middle-distance runner
"Jay is, simply put, the best. His program prepared me for success
in my training for the Rio Olympics. I was able to come back from
an injury in early 2015, to train at a greater consistency and
intensity than ever before. I attribute that comeback, my ability
to transition smoothly to running, and then sustain the hardest
training of my life, to work with Jay."--Kate Grace, Olympic
middle-distance runner
"Jay Dicharry is one of the country's foremost experts when it
comes to understanding how to properly build strength and improve
efficiency for runners. Running Rewired is a definitive handbook to
a stronger, fitter, faster you!"--Brian Metzler, Editor,
MotivRunning.com, Founding Editor, Trail Runner, and coauthor, Run
Like a Champion
"Running is a simple sport, right? But why does almost everyone get
hurt? As Jay discovers in this valuable guide, the reason is an
amazingly complex mix of anatomy, strength, forces, vectors, and
footwear effects. Alas, after reading this book and feeling what
running really is, you will rediscover and understand its
simplicity . . . then you can throw the rest of the library
away."--Dr. Mark Cucuzzella, physician, National Masters runner
"The biggest challenge running coaches encounter is discovering the
balance between maximizing workload while holding off injuries. Jay
Dicharry presents years of knowledge and useful practical
information in a format that's understandable. I am certain Anatomy
for Runners is spot-on, because Jay has helped several of my
athletes both remain healthy and get back to championship
form."--Jason Vigilante, renowned running coach
