FORM CHECK

Technique tips to run stronger for longer STRAIGHTEN UP

Minimise lateral movement at your hips, torso and shoulders, conserving energy for propelling your body forward instead of side to side. Strength and core work will help.

CHILL OUT

Relaxation is essential to maintaining effortless running form. Think about relaxing your shoulders while driving your arms forward and back.

LEAN IN

Lean forward slightly, instead of being too upright. Your torso should be in front of your hips, without hunching your shoulders excessively. This enables the correct muscles to engage and is a more efficient position to accelerate from.
