    Hi all,

    Contemplating doing the Chi running course this weekend. Has anyone here done it and if so is it worth it?
    It's €120 for the course so not cheap. Want to make sure it's not money down the pan!

    Thanks

    If it's Catherina McKiernan's course I did it a few years ago and I recommend it. Plenty of good advice about running posture, and since then I've had almost no injuries.

    Same here, what I got from it was posture when running and technique really..

    I have been injured a huge amount less since doing it, there could clearly be many reasons for that. I would think my yearly mileage is down about 10%, but I was only at the physio 3 or 4 times in all of 2014 [and two of them were because I fell over a tree and bruised my ribs!!], where I claimed back over a grand from insurance in physio alone from 2012 and 2013

    Same here. No injuries in 3+ years since doing it. Tbh I would only do the course with someone who was an ex elite like her as there are prob yoga teachers out there who go him that could make me a few euro.
