I tend to focus on form when tired on a run. Breathing, arm swing, and Strides.
Forward lean and head up , fix your gaze on the horizon and swing your elbows back with relaxed shoulders, but forward lean from the ankles is key . Thanks coach great video and great training plans 👍🏼
Recently found your channel and am thoroughly enjoying going through all your old videos and catching up on your content! New to running so finding the content very helpful!
Ben I just love your positive approach to your videos. Always a smile. Every run I am always focusing on form. I do a form check: head, shoulders, arm swing, hips, stride, cadence, foot landing, toe off, ankles and so on, repeat. Keeping good form doesn't come naturally for me but I am getting more consistent. Sometimes my head is in circles but in all of that I just look around and enjoy the run.
Thanks for the forward lean exercise. Finally a simple exercise to try to make this happen. I can't run or even walk barefoot due to a big toe fusion but I will try out doing some strides. Again very practical advise from you about how to make these happen. Thanks Ben and good luck with London. 👍
I find doing negative split runs - even on easy runs - will train yourself to maintain stronger form as each miles ticks by.
Thanks for this video Ben. I'll be trying these 3 tips out as I work to improve my form 🏃👍
Great reminders, need to work on all of these. Training towards a 3hr marathon May 2022 having done lots of triathlon 3hr30 being my best. Thanks, great channel
I did find this video useful, nice to see you still giving helpful and novel advice 👏🏻
I’ve been running for 10yrs now and completed the Centurion 100 SDW this June. Wanted to get back to road running as had a marathon in September so my form was still up on the trails. Found the tip on Cadence using the metronome on the Fenix6 has massively helped my mid foot strike. I learnt the rhythm and counted 1 to 6 repeatedly for the duration of the marathon and got a PB out of it. Still a way to go before I hit the magic 180 as currently at 170 but will get there.
Great vids Ben !
I try to do strides at least once a week! Thank you for uploading as always Ben, always enjoy your viseos
Bare foot running helped me correct my landing and increase cadance. Doing it on grass is one way, but what I did was use a treadmill during the winter months to do hundreds of miles barefoot (actually with old pairs of socks). Like Ben said, start gradually as the muscles invovleved need to get stronger first.
Appreciate the simple tips Ben. It’s definitely something I need to work on more
Love your videos and am starting applying them!
Great tips - barefoot running in particular… when I started doing it three years ago I was very sceptical but it has really helped. Gone from about ten reps of 20” walking and 2’ walking to the inverse now, once a week - you need to build it up very slowly to protect the calves 😉
And a shout out for Skinners socks - excellent for ‘barefoot’ running now it’s getting colder!
Thx for all the tips it’s been helping so much
Really interesting video this, Ben. Never ran barefoot before and always tried to keep up as straight as I can and never thought about a slight lean so something to think about! Thank you
Been dealing with a really stubborn case of runner's knee for like 3 months. Studying up on my form with vids like yours has really illuminated just how much more considerate I need to be when I run 😤 thanks for the tips and techniques!
Excellent advice.. Thanks Ben
I try to finish some shorter runs at our local park where I can barefoot run around the cricket pitch. Lovely short, soft grass feels great on the feet and quite meditative too!
This week’s videos are tailored to me. I ran a marathon last Sunday, so I’m in recovery mode now. I have seen some footage of me on the marathon and my form looked very bad, like I was shot in both legs. I decided to work on my form, this video was very helpful. I think lot of us would ask for an extended version!
Great tips! At the start of the pandemic I took a deep dive into RUclips, and changed from a heel striking over strider to a forefoot runner. Unfortunate my pace is much slower and I have calf and Achilles tightness, but my knees feel much better.
Same my pace is a good minute slower. Wasn’t that fast to begin with. My hips and glutes thank me however.
Have started to concentrate on shortening my stride, trying to become more economical as a road runner. Hard work trying to teach an old dog (47) new tricks, especially as I'm a former 800m track runner
Great tips as always Ben👍
I read Chi Running and The Lost Art of Running and learn loads. From Chi Running I've added some loosening up drills into my warm-up which I do directly after the Ben Parke's follow along warm up. They help loosen the joints a bit although I'm not sure what impact they've had. From Lost Art of Running I learnt about centre line, tripod and the fascia/elastic system. I've found it hard to implement but definitely over the last year I feel my technique has improved. I used to struggle with cadence as well but now run steady at 170 ish with a shorter stride length. In short, two very good books!
Looks like I'll be adding strides now too!
Great video!
Exactly the video I needed Ben - thanks for this. My form is probably more like that of an injured badger at the moment.
Awesome, Ben
Great info.
I use my easy runs to work on form such as picking up my heels nearer to my bottom and using my arms straight rather than letting them cross and I always run pretty much at 180 steps per min except for fast intervals.
Hi Ben, well I've finally caught up. I started watching your youtube videos about 6 months ago. After watching the first (NDW100) I decided to start at the beginning and watch them all in order. Wow, what a few years you've had. I've loved them all, especially the trail ultra ones. I always like Sarah's random cameo's, especially when you can tell she's totally not bothered. It's quite pertinent that strides came up in this one. How could I not know the benefits of strides after how many times you mention it. Huge qudos for your honest output on mental health. I'm recoving from catching covid, even though I've been double jabbed, but can't wait to get back out there and carry on doing the sessions. Wishing you the very best for London Ben and really excited to now follow along in real time. Thanks again for all the great content and looking forward to see where you're running takes you next. Give KiKi a cuddle from me. Sam
Thank you very much for your kind words Sam! Wishing you a swift recovery and back to running strong very soon 🙌
I found the 100up drills were good for helping with the transition to barefoot form - from heel striker with bad knees to forefoot striker with no pain (once my calves calmed down!)
Loving the matchy matchy shoes and clothes combo 🔥
Thanks Ben for the running foam tips, 👍🏼☘️🌲🍀✅🥳
Great video 😀 Perfect timing for my easy longer run tomorrow. Hard to maintain that posture 100% any advice? On the lsr's ?
For barefoot running, what about running with a low drop (for eg. 2mm drop) shoe? I have a high arch in my foot and have custom insoles to help with this. Cheers!
Some good tips Ben thanks, getting on ok did a PB sunday at Stafford half 1.19.53 hoping Sub 3 at Manchester marathon
Sub 3 is certainly on based on that half time Adam.. good luck!! Hope you get it!
A great place for barefoot running is the infield of a running track, which for me is the artificial turf of an (American) football field. It's about 5 rectangular laps to a mile, and I never have to worry about anything hurting my feet.
Ben, do a video on your current shoe rotation! I don’t like the new version of the 1080s (v11) after 3x pairs of the 10s and I need some new ideas.
my biggest concern with barefoot running on the beach is stepping on fishing hooks, haha. I went for a barefoot run on the beach in December and kept thinking I'm going to get hooked by one of those things. Dope video, love the channel.
Don't think I'd want to run barefoot in Barnsley! Great tips though! Manchester Half coming up so will definitely put a couple of these into practice!
Heel striking isn't a problem and how we strike the ground is down to each individual biomechanics. Some of the best runners in the world heel strike ( Brigid Kosgei ). What's important is where the foot lands ( right underneath one's hips ) and not what part of the foot hits the ground first. Landing forefoot first way too far up front isn't good for example.......
Hey Ben, great vid??
I’ve got a trail 10k in January and was thinking of buying your 10k training plan. Is it more road specific or would it also apply to a trail race too??
Do you do one to one coaching? I’m really in need of a coach.
Thanks
re: strides, would you agreee with other coaches that you should start off slow & gradually accelerate, for each rep?
Thanks mate🦘🦘🦘🦘🇦🇺🇦🇺
I do strides all the time after a long run. About 6 at 90% effort. I’ve found that doing them consistently has improved my running economy in my running
Great to hear it works! And thank you for your support here :-)
My coach has been helping with my form. Today I had a 1.96m stride length on my 600m reps.
Impressive Alex!!
@@BenParkes Thank you
Hi Ben, many thanks for another great video with top tips! Could I just add a quick one depending on where you're barefoot running that you might not want to just look out for sharp objects but soft ones also! ;-)
🤣😂🤣 good point! 💩
I find the lean also helps with cadence or maybe thats just me haha
Also got a 10k tune up race on sunday and first use of th Alphaflys for an upcoming half marathon pb attempt
Are those shorts on the website to buy Ben?
on the beach... what a guy
When I was in primary school (1959), by the Thames in Battersea, we were warned about the dreadful infections you could get from the foreshore at low tide, and the amount of hidden sharp objects in the sand. Nevertheless we kids always ignored that, but I remember someone cut up their foot quite badly running down there. Gave me quite a shock to see you running on ‘the beach’. Perhaps it has been cleaned up meanwhile.
It's actually not to bad in that little section there in Greenwich.. would have way preferred to drive out to a beach in Kent / Sussex.. but wanted to get the video uploaded and hope we still got the point over about running on the sand!
Thanks. Rebel v2 review soon?
Will be out next week!
I do a km a day in barefeet. It helps heaps. I do strides x10 once a week. I used to do the lean forward thing, it helped me
@Ben Parkes:
You leaned from the ankles and the immediately bent at the hip in your first step. I don't think forward leaning is a good advise. It is more about keep your pelvis neutral so you distribute the weight and run tall. Everything else will adjust to your specific and individual biomechanics.
Hi Ben just created this running RUclips channel any tips
What if I trip?
Can we buy your hats to be shipped to US?
Yes you can! 😀
Probably safer to run with Vibram minimalist shoes for the barefoot training in case of sharp objects in the grass. I wore Vibrams for 5 years on the road as well as cross country & did end up hurting my foot bones so be warned keep to soft ground..
Yes, soft ground only! Hope you’re all ok now John
I must warn about barefoot running, When I started experimented at the end I completely ditched my thick running shoes completely, and maybe because it felt more fun, I got farther and faster than on my running shoes.
What is your half marathon PB ?
1.(this is not a serious comment)
I should avoid the forward lean scared gravity will pull my fart ass to much and i will reach light speed (alright I'll try it)
2. 🐻 Foot running , seems dangerous... (Here's a tip stop using shoes in your homes) (not using shoes for years still heel striker)
3. Ever been running on the road and a truck 🚛 passed you? The backlash wind 🌬️ you get? That's what happens when this fat bastard (me) strides past you!!! (I love strides!! So does my loaner dog !! Awesome vid Ben hope you enjoyed my comment!!
Very informative from a starter p.o.v
Hi Ben, great video and tips just a heads up there is a couple of minor sound issues at the refernce points of 1.39 and 3.25. I understand the frustation of making minior errors like this now and than being a fellow editor myself. All the best :)
Yeah.. the rode must have just lost coverage there.. we mixed in the secondary camera audio to patch it up a bit.. hopefully still got the message across. All the best!
@@BenParkes yeah I thought it was a technical issue. I don't want to take anything away from you're videos because the editing is always spot on and entertaining 👍
Ben great tips generally … but too big a risk in running by the Thames or in an inner city park bare foot due to needle risk injury and stepping on drug users paraphernalia 😱
You can just buy some barefoot shoes. I have Vibram Fivefingers and Vivobarefoot. I typically do an easy run in them 1-2 times a week. Lots of fun.
Yes.. location dependant for sure!
For the barefoot running, I would advise a pair of FiveFingers to be brought in gradually and before long you'll get rid of your hefty trainers.
So Strides here just mean that you run at 95% intensity?
I could never run barefoot... I would love to try it but the parks are so dirty... Sorry but not for me :/
big beach... hahaha
Thanks for the aids
Or get some shiny new trainers.
