The Lost Art of Running

A Journey to Rediscover the Forgotten Essence of Human Movement
Book • 2020
The Lost Art of Running is a book that combines narrative and practical advice on running techniques.

Shane Benzie takes readers on a journey across five continents, documenting his work with elite athletes and indigenous runners.

The book is divided into three parts: 'The Journey,' which details Benzie's global travels; 'The Foundations,' which explains his theories on tensegrity, fascia, and elastic running; and 'The Practical,' which provides tips and advice on various aspects of running technique such as foot placement, cadence, stride length, and posture.

Benzie's approach emphasizes natural movement, fluidity, and the use of the body's fascia system to run more efficiently and effectively.
