Week Two!

So far, so good!


I'm on week two of my ChiRunning 5K program, and I'm really enjoying it! Week one was all about posture and getting aligned. I did three run/walks focusing on keeping my posture straight, levelling my pelvis, and landing on my full foot (rather than my heel). My left shin is still sore, so I'm icing it every day, but it's not getting any worse, so I assume it's fine to continue. 


This week will focus on engaging my core and running from my centre, and it's also time to start using a metronome to guide my cadence. Today was my first musicless run in a very long time, and it was actually ok! I thought I would miss it more than I did, so I was pleasantly surprised. This whole ChiRunning thing is a ton of fun so far! 


My next run is on Monday and will be 40 minutes of run3/walk2, and I can't wait!
