The Runner's Paradox
A paradox lies at the heart of distance running: Running is natural, yet we still need to learn to run. In understanding this paradox, we not only understand running, we also understand ourselves.
The Runner’s Paradox is the primary book you will need in your running journey. This book will guide you through your embodied experiences when you run - from training to racing and to the final mile of your journey. Learn how the upper body works with the lower body to influence the running movement. Recognise ineffective movement patterns before an injury happens, and take steps to improve your running efficiency. Get ready to be enlightened, inspired and excited.
