BECOME A FASTER, MORE DURABLE RUNNER

Sports physiologist and biomechanics expert Jay Dicharry will rewire your body and brain for better running. From the track to the trail, sprints to ultras, Dicharry's Running Rewired program has proven successful in equipping athletes for the demands that running puts on the body.

Get started this season with 15 workouts to develop the precision and performance that will transform your run. By adding just two workouts a week to your regular training, you will develop the strength, stability, and speed that lead to faster, more efficient running.

For better or worse, your body drives your form. Old injuries, mobility problems, fatigue, wear and tear--these reveal themselves in how you move when you run. The Running Rewired program addresses these blocks, strengthens you, and trains you to run better for the miles ahead.

"Jay is, simply put, the best. His program prepared me for success in my training for the Rio Olympics."

--Kate Grace, Olympic middle-distance runner

"Jay Dicharry integrates the science of how the body moves with his extensive knowledge of runners and their problems to improve your mechanics and make you a better runner."

--Jonathan Beverly, author of Run Strong, Stay Hungry and Your Best Stride

"With Jay's methodical plan I was able to go from being unable to run to setting a course marathon PR at the Ironman World Championships."

-Linsey Corbin, 5-time Ironman(R) champion
