A post from a newbie

I received a post from the Tri Alliance facebook page which made my day.


There is no secret training formula with running - It's pretty simple but often not taught. I learnt these skills from doing the Tony Benson run sessions about 18 months ago.
  • First you need to learn how to run slowly to enable you to run fast
  • Jog on the spot - you will be landing forefoot/mid foot. This is the natural way your feet should be landing on the ground
  • Use this to propel your body forward
  • Arms should be bent around 85 degrees.
  • Wrists should be relaxed (like you are holding onto some eggs)
  • Elbows to move back (not side to side)
  • Run tall
  • Always smile
Easy.
