Ran outdoors in the sun! Thank God for this sunny 40 degree day. I needed it. I was in super slow motion today trying to learn "Chirunning". Focus. Focus. Focus. Having to think about what you're doing while running is really hard!
Getting outside felt GREAT, and my knee was not killing me like it has been the past few weeks. I could tell it was there. It wasn't totally pain free. I really think that indoor track makes the problem way worse.
Oh, and I loooove my new injinji socks!!!! No more blisters since I started wearing them. Thanks to all of you who talked me into trying them!
I LOVE Chirunning!!! I started that years ago and it's been the best thing I've ever done! I remember my first try with it. It was a horrible run. I bent my body weird (instead of leaning) and spilled all my chi!! Focusing is SO important (as you already know). I'm glad you're chirunning!!!
I think you might be right about the indoor track. When I go a certain direction (i.e. clockwise) on the track, it bothers my ankle vs the other direction. Maybe it's the constant turning??
about 1 month agoGo Chi running! I picked it up less than a year ago. I have been running injury-free ever since.
about 1 month agoYou guys are so inspiring! I am determined to stick with it. I could feel myself screwing up, and would literally stop, refocus, start over. No wonder it took me 36 minutes to run 3 miles! lol That last mile I could feel it really starting to "click". Low and behold, running seemed effortless at that point. Even with my knee letting me know it was there. Amazing.
