Running Survey

Here is a running survey from Brent.

1. What is your favorite long run pace?
9:30 min/miles

2. What is your favorite (or typical) pre-run meal?
Recently I have been eating cereal and a wheat English muffin before I leave for my morning run.

3. What was the distance of your first ever, official race?
Does cross country in high school count? (high school – 2.3 miles) My first “official” race on my own was a local 10K course.

4. Do you typically run in groups or run alone?
Wednesday night runs and Saturday morning runs are usually with one or two of the Running Chicks.

5. Name one or two NEW running experiences (occurring within the past year), that you have grown the most from.
- reading Chi Running and learning about the pose method from Mark (I learned to become more aware of my running form.)

6. What is your least favorite structure to run on/over?
cobbled stone roads

Now it’s your turn to share!

hi aa. yup i did read that week 9 comment last week. hmmmm. i'm starting to wonder if different methods work best for different people? one thing for sure, chi-r has been miraculous on my shin splints, particularly keeping the lower body limp and not push off stuff...so i'm going to keep with those principles for now. what do you think? see ya!
