Summary: It’s not unusual for coaches of beginner runners to disregard form in lieu of total emphasis on building endurance. I believe the opposite is the far better, more effective route.<br> Why learn to run with bad form? Why? It makes no sense. The easies time to focus on form is when you’re only running a few steps at a time. Plus, the better the form, the less the likelihood of injury – and the better the running form, the more comfortable the runner will be, the more coordinated the new runner will feel, and that is hugely important.<br> In this podcast I take you from head to toe, quickly going over all the elements of running form.<br> If you’d like a deeper, quite thorough look into running form, I’ve got that for you, too.
