I've had some good runs over the past few days. I did a 5 mile Saturday, 3 Monday, 2 Tuesday and 3 today. My achilles is not hurting, which is a miracle. Saturday's run was different for Mississippi. It snowed on me. It was fun.
I've been trying out chi running form with some positive results. My legs are not nearly as tired as they used to be, and I'm enjoying the meditative focus on relaxation during the run. It hasn't been a very difficult change because I have always naturally been a mid-foot striker. The focus on relaxation it what is most different. I want to focus on pace and pushing it. Leaving that by the wayside has been relaxing within itself.
