  • I tested out the Newtons before I ever heard of Chi Running. Didn't like them. I think they aren't really Chi shoes they are more forefoot than midfoot and pretty expensive. You should be at 5:30 in no time. I will be happy at 6 but have my sights set on 5:00

  • actually, this is an old video and I am at 5:30 but haven't really run the mile very much lately. my last one, which I kind of let go in the last 200, was 5:36, so I'm getting better.

  • It is the only mile road race I have found. San Diego,California.

    It took me a while to figure out the Chi running. There are some good videos on youtube. I would suggest buying the dvd and or book.

    Things that helped me the most were: shorten my stride, land midfoot instead of ball or heel of foot, lift feet instead of pushing off the ground, relax the legs and hips, lean forward to use gravity.

  • yeah, I'm still learning. I bought a pair of Newton Running's shoes and they were too extreme for me. too bad I don't live closer to SD or I'd come and run it. :(

  • Great Job! I will try to break 6 on the road in a race Saturday.

    Check out Chi Running for injury free running form.

  • also where is the road race? I can't seem to find any anywhere at the mile distance.

  • How old were you when you ran this? My first sub-6 mile was last year (11 years old)... Nice by the way!

  • Oh my god your mom is sooo hot she should blow me.

  • Wow you're good for being so young
