Grateful for ChiRunning Research
Hello! Just wanted to tell you that this weekend I used my new Chi skills to go kayaking! WOW, what a difference! So much more effective and great for paddling. When you paddle, you are supposed to twist your upper body at the same spot you twist for ChiRunning …and it makes for a great […]
Great Accomplishments With ChiRunning
I’m sure you’ve heard it before, but I bet you never get tired hearing it…ChiRunning changed my life! Having never been very athletic, I decided to take up running at age 38. I have never been overweight and was relatively fit. But I was not in the best aerobic shape; I couldn’t run for more […]
Great Results From Chi Week and Metronome
Frank and I attended the week long ChiRunning program in June. We have been diligently practicing our ChiRunning form and are loving it. Frank just ran a tough half at 1:40:44 almost effortlessly. My time wasn’t as good but I did finish over 20 minutes ahead of the 2nd place finisher in my age division. […]

Half-Marathoner Finishes Faster and Pain-Free with ChiRunning
A message of pure gratitude as your book on ChiRunning has completely changed my running experience. In only three and a half years I’ve gone through patellar tendonitis (in both knees), plantar fasciitis, and many other injuries I can’t even describe. By applying the ChiRunning method, not only have I forgotten what running pains are […]

Our transplant surgery was Dec 17th. Living kidney donor surgery is now done laparoscopically (overview of surgery – […]
I Can Not Put Down Your Book!
Dear Danny, I received your book ChiRunning. I will be running my first marathon in June. I cannot put it down. I am so excited to learn about ChiRunning. I have been running about 6 years, but only about 3 miles, 2-3 times a week. I love how I feel after my runs, but I […]
Improvement Through Recovery
Less than 3 years since my first ever ChiRunning workshop, 2.5 years since I first ran outside, and 2 years since my first 5k (and my 60th birthday) , I have now run two half marathons (PR of 1:44 and placed third in my age group in the SF First 1/2, which was top 3% […]
Improving Time While Staying Pain-Free
Thanks to ChiRunning, I’ve been injury-free the past three years and just finished the 2011 Boston Marathon in 2:59, my fastest marathon since I was 21 years old back in 1989. I’m now 42, have been running since I was 11, but only in the last few years, after reading ChiRunning and putting in practice […]
In The Marathon, As In Life…ChiRunning Works
Hi Danny, Katherine and The Team, A massive hello from me and, at the outset, an even bigger thank you for bringing such a skillful approach to my running over the last two years. I have been meaning to get in touch for a while now, but in the inimitable words of John Lennon, “life […]
