Running Technique Notes

Core technique form posture

Posture

If I stand up tall I move faster than when I lean. Run as if you were running downhill — upright, frequent, and with a relaxed feeling.

Key Cues

  • Upright posture — don’t lean forward excessively
  • High cadence — quick, light ground contact
  • Relaxed upper body — drop the shoulders, unclench the hands
  • Eyes forward — look ahead, not at the ground
