BALANCED N MOTION

Insurance

You cannot stop time and one should always plan for the future. As humans, we are acutely aware that our bodies have limitations. Those limitations might increase as we age and possibly restrict us from doing the things we enjoy. Most folks will take out an insurance policy to protect themselves and their family in the event of an injury or illness. This could be considered being proactive, only wanting the best for our family and ourselves to continue living a productive life.

When you ask most runners how long do they plan to run for?  The answer is “as long as my body will let me”. When asked what they are doing to ensure that they can run long into their golden years, you might get a blank stare. You see most runners live in the present and are happy just to be able to run today. Tomorrow's run is not always guaranteed but what if there was a way to give you more years of running? Kind of like an insurance policy if you will. By paying attention to how you run, getting rid of unnecessary impact and keeping all moving parts properly aligned can substantially decrease wear and tear on the body.

Learning ChiRunning can be like subscribing to an insurance policy.

ChiRunning teaches you to listen to your body and how to correct the inefficient motion that can be slowing you down or even worse, causing discomfort or pain.
