Run Injury-Free with Chi

Running doesn’t hurt your body, it’s the way you run that causes problems. ChiRunning significantly lowers injury rates for all runners, while improving performance at the same time.

Eliminate the two main causes of injury with Chi

Running injuries don’t have to happen. In fact, they’re most often a result of either overuse or impact:

Overuse injuries are caused by using your muscles incorrectly or beyond their capacity.

Impact injuries come from over-striding, which creates a heel strike and produces excessive braking motion.
