Running Technique

    Which of These Two Runners Do You Most Resemble?

    Earlier today while coaching our weekly Oregon Circuits session here in Norwich, I used the Ubersense App on my iPhone to capture some interesting running footage. I managed to quickly record some contrasting examples of running technique in two of our regulars.

    I wasn't planning on getting the camera out, but I wanted to post a video commenting on the clear differences in running form between Andy (@ajskiggs) and James (@rideharderuk), both experienced triathletes.

    Watching athletes working into significant levels of fatigue, as per this mid-sesison footage, is always a great opportunity to see how technique breaks down as the body is placed under duress.

    Watch the video above for my coaching commentary on a number of important running technique flaws and patterns I see daily in runners and triathletes...

    For the record: I have done some specific running technique coaching with Andy, while James is yet to receive any technique coaching input...

Formerly a professional rugby player, James' transition into distance running has taught him what his body is capable of, a process which is ongoing!
