Hey Amy! The running is going great. I’ve really seen a difference after implementing Chi running. I’ve had no back pain and relatively no soreness after each run. Yesterday, I tackled the hills of Ballantyne (aptly called “The Soul Crusher”) and felt very happy with my performance (thanks to those 45 degree arms!) I’m still slower than my average but I’m okay with that. Right now, my main focus is on the alignment and keeping my arms by my sides. I’m really excited and can’t wait to continue with the progress.”
“I attended 3 hours worth of chi running training on Nov. 1st, 2008. I learned a great deal from Amy and LOVED it!! I have been incorporating it in my running and it is amazing how much easier it is to run up a hill!!! Thanks for allowing me to participate!! I find myself correcting my posture through the day now! Thanks so much!!”
“It felt like I wasn’t running.”
“ChiRunning has enabled me to run without knee pain -even after my knee surgery!”
“I was able to complete my half-ironman triathlon with no knee pain, and even finished it within the eight hours! No knee pain the next two days, either. I did the run in about 2 ½ hours, focusing on form and not speed, as you suggested, and it worked for me! So, thank you for your help. Your suggestions about balance helped also, as it rained during the bike event, and I had no road-rash. Kudos for your class, and for your extra comments after!”
“You have truly made a difference in my long term health and I am forever grateful!”
“Thank you so much for the class last night! I thought I would wake up and not be able to move due to soreness but I feel amazing! I just went for a morning run! I love what I am learning and never thought I could get back to where I was a year ago before my accident, I know now that I CAN!”
“Amy, I just want to thank you for Saturday’s session. I learned so much and had fun! I’m practicing my running and walking! Thanks!”
“Your class today was fantastic.”
“I went out with my dog yesterday for a longer run in our neighborhood (a little under 6 miles…lots of hills). I usually run for the first 2 miles, then walk/run the remainder. Yesterday, I ran the entire time and felt great! Nearly 3 times the distance the first time out using the chi techniques!! And, the best part: I felt *graceful*. I have NEVER in my life felt graceful!! It almost felt like I was floating. I’m so excited about my new “practice”! So, on Saturday, when I said I wasn’t a runner….can I change my answer to “I am a CHI RUNNER”! Thanks so much for your teachings and support! I’m SOLD!!”
