  lol...
  As usual, everyone is entitled to his/her own goals... Just that there are some aspects in chi running in which normal joggers can take note off to protect themselves, i.e. the way to land and the amount to lean. I do take note of all these during jogging because my left knee/ankle isn't very good due to stupid things I have to do during army, i.e. carrying a stupid field pack + SBO + rifle (total 20kg+) plus having to walk long distances (max was 50km), sprint/escape when "enemy" sighted, and others. You wouldn't know how many people in my vocation got downgraded for knee and back injuries.

  Chi running do say some things about chi, but let's not focus on that aspect. Instead, it would be interesting to take note on the physical part, the physics of it. It's analogous to when you train your muscles, where physics determine which muscles are used.
