Book Reviews of Running and Breathing

Book Review: Not for experienced runners
Summary: 2 Stars

The book is interesting, and well written. It contains little unique or scarcely known or understood information. Novice runners might like it and get more from it than experienced runners.

Summary of Running and Breathing

Run, walk, or even bicycle without fatigue! That seems the impossible dream for athletes, but Dr. Justin O'Brien, a runner and a yogi, reveals in this book a unique style of sport training that does just that. Trade paper. Inspired by the yogis of the Himalayas, who run fifty miles a day up and down mountainous terrain, O'Brien was intrigued to find out how they could sustain arduous endeavors while remaining tireless. So, he experimented with the breathing and yoga techniques he learned from Swami Rama, an extraordinary Himalayan master, applied them to his conventional running training and gradually assimilated them into an exciting new method.
