Chi Running..
I keep thinking about Dr.D's exercise recommendations. I also keep repeating the phrase "knowledge is power." What new knowledge did I acquire today?
I learned that my right side is much much stronger than my left side. I learned that my left hip is much weaker than my right. I also learned that until I correct the imbalances, all lower leg cardio activities will continue to pound my knee joint inappropiately and lead to future problems.
I also learned that we all must lean on others, because there just isn't enough time in the world to learn everything we need to know. That's why I have put so much faith into Dr. D. Call it intuition, call it an 'educated guess', or call it blind faith. Well, that's really not quite accurate. It is pretty obvious when my body is able to digest something easily and I have more energy over the long haul. Brown rice and beans eaten one night before an 8:00 A.M. trail run positively affects my performance. It's nice to hit an 8 mail trail and feel pretty strong at the end.
Anyway, Chi Running. I look forward to learning proper running technique so I can minimize joint damage. I look foward to long distance endurance running through a beautiful forest. In fact, if Dr. D were familiar with Chi Running, I have to wonder if he wouldn't actually recommend this sport for my genotype. ???????????????????????????????????????
Any other Chi runners out there? ![]()
