The way I run has several things in common with their approaches when you look at the resulting form, but I put less emphasis on specifics of form, and more emphasis on organizing thoughts and images. I take A LOT of inspiration from the animal kingdom too (especially big cats and horses). If you're willing to try out some of my stuff I'd love to have your input on what works and what doesn't. My approach will always be a work-in-progress. Most of the running specific stuff I'll be publishing on the running blog at www.joy4running.wordpress.com so keep an eye on that one if you're interested.

It's always seemed like self torture to me. When I was doing my AT training my head of training said I was better off going swimming instead. But I've persisted on and off, with occasional periods of non-running. I took a workshop in London with Malcolm Balk and studied Chi Running as well. These have helped in avoiding injury, but I still feel that running is a "should" rather than a "want to" and I'd like to be able to just be able to run without having to have a constant eye on technique, where my feet are landing and how my breathing is. So, to cut a long story short, your approach sounds very intuitive and refreshing.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18296608737152823071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-574841750375577755.post-12024714178512784232015-08-03T15:25:10.414-03:002015-08-03T15:25:10.414-03:00Yay!
