Running Tips
- The "ideal" running cadence is 180 steps per minute and this shouldn't vary too much depending on speed. Force off the ground should just get harder so when you're out count your strides and see where you are!
- Practice running with a midfoot foot strike. Many people run Heel to Toe and that can slow you down since you're creating a breaking pattern when you hit the ground.
- Your fist and fingers should be loose enough that a pencil can drop through them.
- Stay relaxed in your whole body and you'll be more efficient and run faster.
- Don't slouch when you start to fatique. Maintain form through your body by envisioning a string coming out of the top of your head, pulling you erect.
