There will be no charge and anyone is welcome regardless of ChiRunning knowledge or running ability. There is no registration but I appreciate if people contact me by email if they are planning to attend so I can estimate the numbers to deal with. The goals of the sessions are to grow the ChiRunning community in the Ottawa/Gatineau area by (i) bringing ChiRunners in the area together (ii) and help both new and existing ChiRunners develop/refine their technique. If you are following a training program and Mondays are normally your rest days, no problem, the sessions will have very little actual running and will consist mostly of light drills designed to help with your form. The sessions will not spend time on trying to sell you on the ChiRunning technique, but rather to help you implement it effectively. So if you are new to ChiRunning and are not sure whether it's for you, my recommendation is to first read the book "ChiRunning: A Revolutionary Approach to Effortless, Injury-Free Running" available at Chapters, Amazon or the ChiRunning web site www.chirunning.com. You can also take one of Eric Collard's Ottawa ChiRunning workshops designed to provide a complete hands-on overview of the ChiRunning technique. Information on Eric's workshops can be found on his website at http://www.ecinc.ca/chirunning.html. If you are interested in the sessions or have any general questions or questions on application of the technique, don't hesitate to contact me at mstashin@runeffortlessly.com. Updates will be posted on this website and www.runeffortlessly.com. Michael (Mike) Stashin Certified ChiRunning/ChiWalking Instructor
