Chi Marathoning

Danny Dreyer's new book Chi Marathoning is now available and I have it downloaded to my Nook. Even with a quick galance through I can tell that this book is chockfull of information and I'm loking forward to diving in. Dreyer's first book - Chi Running was very influential in helping me develope my running style and particularly his method ofsteep hill running has changed my ultra racing so much more for the (easier) better. I'm not sold 100% on the Chi Running method but the things I haven't come around to are very minor on the whole and perhaps with a recommitment on my part to 100% compliance and I would see things completely his way. I'm running fast(er) and injury free and farther then ever before - much f that is with the help of Chi Running and all of it is due to very similar methods - so I own and offer Mr. Dreyer a big thank you. I'll do a complete review of the book once I'm finished but I definitely recommend picking up a copy. I had the great frtune to talk to Mr. Dreyer n the phone thanks to my wife who was running the Air Force Marathon and he is a gracious and kind man and his enthusiasm for running was felt even on the phone. This man knows his stuff. If you read it drop me a line and let me know what you think - and if there's any Chi Runners out there please provide some feedback as well.

Thanks!
