When ultramarathoner and running guru Danny Dreyer attended a tai chi class in 1999, a lightbulb went off.

He believed the martial art's principles of alignment, relaxation, and balance could allow him to finally make the next leap in training, and he wasn't disappointed.

After he began incorporating tai chi into his running, Danny not only witnessed dramatic improvements in his performance, but he also wasn't getting injured anymore.

In fact, he'd finish a run feeling exactly the same as when he started.

Wishing to share his discovery, Danny founded ChiRunning through which he's helped thousands of runners conquer injury and run more efficiently to reach new levels.

A mindful and process-driven exercise rather than simply a means to an end, ChiRunning is also known as "moving meditation", and it's helped both recreational and elite athletes reduce impact for improved health, better performance, and more enjoyable running.

Listen in as Danny discusses the benefits of ChiRunning as well as how to master the technique so many runners swear by today.
