"I simply cannot thank you enough for introducing me to Chi Running. I fear that the path that I was on of continual injury and pain to my lower leg would have eventually caused me to give up running. But, thanks to time spent at your clinic, your workshop, reading the Chi Running book and the ongoing work that I do on my own, I have been healthy for well over 18 months. 

 

"I used to wake up and carefully take the first few steps out of bed because my lower legs would be tight and stiff. Now I can spring out of bed now. 

 

"I used to just resign myself to the fact that my calves would ache after a run for hours. Now, I can't remember the last time that my calves ached. 

​

"I used to try every contraption, gadget and stretch to alleviate leg pain - tens units, the stick, compression socks and the like. Now, they sit in a bin collecting dust. 

​

"I used to be able to run 2 days in a row and then would have to take a day of rest. Now, I run multiple days without needing to take a rest day. 

​

"And, yes, all of this means that I can run pain free and enjoy running so much more. But, for me, I like tangible results. So....yesterday....I got that tangible result. I ran the Foot Traffic Flat Half Marathon in 1:48, which is 4 minutes off of my PR. That PR had stood for exactly 10 years.

"I'm a believer in Chi Running and continue to work on my form every single day"
