The Chippie Sep 2011 8:30pm, 11 Sep 2011 57 posts	0 The Chippie Tried Chi Running tonight. Went out for a slow 5 miler. Found it very strange and it seemed quite hard work, not sure if I'm putting too much effort into picking my feet up to the rear. I seem to be landing on the balls of my feet as well. Anyone else have this problem? On the plus side I was able to control my Knee pain, although to do this I as running quite slow and found it difficult to run fast whilst Chi running. I WILL persevere

Quite a moot point is that. To get in to Chi, go to the Chi thread and ask for Mitch - she's an instructor and she should be able to help you.
