Running Form Tips

By Aaron, February 11th, 2010 9:42 am in Running Technique | 5 Comments

  • Keep your shoulder, hips and ankles along one vertical line.
  • Use your chest as a speedometer (i.e. slightly forward for more speed). The very slight forward lean is from the ankles NOT the waist.
  • Don’t put a lot of force through your heels on landing, but…don’t point or land on your toes either.
  • Make your support time short (pick up your foot quickly).
  • Keep your hips forward, but relaxed.
  • Keep your knees bent – don’t completely straighten them on landing or push-off.
  • Don’t increase your stride length without increasing your stride frequency first.
  • Run with a stride frequency approaching170 -180 steps per minute regardless of running speed. (I.e. right foot lands 45 times in 30 seconds).

NOTE: Everyone has a natural technique. If any of these tips cause excessive distress or soreness, please refrain. Please only try one tip at a time as a focus for only part of a run.
