 Chi Running July 6, 2007
This book was very helpful. I had a knee injury that hindered me from running for several months, and the technique that was taught in the book allowed me to run with my Cross Country team again. It was a great because it was very specific, even telling running form for hills and different types of terrian. It is definitely a good read for any runner, I know it really helped me with my injury.
Essential Runners Book July 1, 2007

Training for the Salt Lake City 2007 (my first) marathon, i got injured and doubted whether I would be able to do it at all. After reading this and applying it's techniques, i found that my technique was all wrong (or non-existent). Determination and commitment were not enough for an endurance race! I thought running was something you 'just did'. Wrong.
Not only did I finish under 4 hours, but i had an injury-free race and even felt fine afterwards.
That was all due to the book - I can't praise it enough. I also bought the video too. It was the best money I spent on running gear - after my shoes!
Took me off my toes June 29, 2007
A great methodology to running that will improve anybody's form. The best advice that I absorbed was to not land on my toes but on the whole foot and to lean forward. Danny's focus is on making running more effortless by using the force of gravity amd momentum. He also sprinkles in a little bit about fueling your body, choosing the proper equipment, and posture. The title may set you back but don't let it fool you; your body will thank you.
Easy running... May 7, 2007
Danny Dryer has done a wonderful job of explaining this concept of running. I enjoy running longer distances injury free. I continue to work on perfecting my style and refer to the book and dvd often. I have my running coach available at my fingertips. The concepts and exercises are easily understood.
 powerful the title, empty the content May 6, 2007

I bought the book with a lot of expectations and I was disappointed. The author keeps on sayng trivial statements as if they were his own discovery. Not a very useful book.
