Summary of Danny Dreyer & Katherine Dreyer's ChiRunning
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The perceived rate of exertion is the amount of exertion you feel yourself doing. It is different from your actual rate of exertion, which is the amount of exertion you are doing. Your PRE is the amount of exertion you sense yourself to be doing. #2 Your PRE is what you feel like you’re doing regardless of what you’re actually doing. The emphasis of ChiRunning is to set yourself up so that there are no blocks and your energy can freely flow through your body. #3 Running is a great way to get outside and exercise, while also improving your cardiovascular health and stamina. It is inexpensive, requires minimal gear, and can be done almost anywhere. #4 The most common theory about runner’s injuries is that they are caused by overtraining. I believe this to be a myth, as the primary cause of injury is poor running form and biomechanics.
Dr. Nicholas Romanov's Pose Method of Running
Running barefoot isn't as natural as we're led to believe. Recent studies have shown that up to 85% of runners get injured every year, how natural is that? The most important question that running "barefoot" or "naturally" doesn't address is how we should run. Repetitive ground impact forces are at the root of most running injuries. A 30 minute jog can log more than 5,000 foot strikes; its because of this volume of movement that efficient

At the Garden's Gate
At the Garden’s Gate is the story of one woman’s personal journey in creating a meadow, when going “green” wasn’t an everyday word. As the author follows her passion to learn about medicinal and edible plants, a meadow evolves that supports growth—both natural and personal. During this process, she reconnects with her Native American heritage, learning the wisdom of the Medicine Wheel and its teachings.

Using story in the ancient ways of her Native American elders, the author offers insight, wisdom and conveys an impetus...
Natural Running
Natural Running is the middle ground runners have been looking for. By learning to run the barefoot way, while wearing shoes, runners will become more efficient, stronger, and healthier runners. Backed by studies at MIT and Harvard, running form and injury expert Danny Abshire presents the natural running technique, form drills, and an 8-week transition plan that will put runners on the path to faster, more efficient, and healthier running.In Natural Running, Abshire explains how modern running shoes distort the efficient running technique that humans evolved over thousands of years. He reviews the history of running shoes and injuries, making the case for barefoot running but also warning a...
Barefoot Running
How could something we have for free—our bare feet—be better for running than $150 shoes? The truth is that running in shoes is high-impact, unstable, and inflexible. Shoes promote a heel-centric ground strike, which weakens your feet, knees, and hips, and leads to common running injuries. In contrast, barefoot running is low-impact, forefoot-centric, stable, and beneficial to your body. It encourages proper form and strengthens your feet in miraculous ways. When you run in shoes, you not only risk developing poor form, but you also hinder the natural relationship with the ground that running facilitates. Barefoot running restores the delightful sensory and spiritual connections to the e...
Slow Jogging
Running is America’s most popular participatory sport, yet more than half of those who identify as runners get injured every year. Falling prey to injuries from overtraining, faulty form, poor eating, and improper footwear, many runners eventually, and reluctantly, abandon the sport for a less strenuous pastime. But for the first time in the United States, Hiroaki Tanaka’s Slow Jogging demonstrates that there is an efficient, healthier, and pain-free approach to running for all ages and lifestyles. Tanaka’s method of easy running, or “slow jogging,” is an injury-free approach to running that helps participants burn calories, lose weight, and even reverse the effects of Type-2 diabe...
