    Thanks for this James, a fascinating deep dive. One thing I've noticed about my running for is over the last 3 years as I've become a better runner, my form has improved drastically. Some videos from around 4 years ago are almost unrecognisable with my arms swinging all over the place. I've consciously worked on my arm drive by looking at my reflection in the windows at my gym which i would equate most of this improved efficiency. I can maintain WR pace for about 3k but hopefully with some more training i can aim to keep up for at least 5k :)

    I've had a hard time learning the nuances on how to actually run efficiently. What I've been doing is giving a good pop thrust off the ground at the end of each stride stroke. This, for one, drives me forward but also kicks that trailing heal up higher, which then translates to a more efficient knee drive forward. Last night, i ran a 4:10 per km average pace 10k using this, and it was a milstone achievement for me 41:44 pr.

    Hi James! Fellow Norwich boy here! Started last year a little over 100kg, starting running June last year, now sitting at 64kg and fitter and healthier than ever. I still have a lot of work to do and I just know that there are significant problems with my form. My 5k/10k paces are fairly similar, around 5.30-5.45/km. I'd love to push on and work down towards 4.00 in the future. I'm 43 years old and have never been fit or active in my life until recently. It feels strange! If you ever feel like doing a video about improving the form of an unlikely runner like me, then feel free to hit me up! Love your content! Andy

    Why is everyone analyzing form under perfect circumstances. Analyze 35k in to a marathon. Also different bio different stride. One cannot possible claim there is only one way to run correct. A bit tired of people drawing a few lines over a picture and pretending that this is what differs a regular runner from a pro.

    • @JamesDunne
      @JamesDunne  2 месяца назад +7

      You do make a valid point in that fatigue is a game changer! There's no one-size-fits-all optimal running form, but there are a handful fundamental principals that we'd all do well to work on, like not over striding. I've shared a few analysis videos recently where the subject of the video is running under fatigue, like this runner mid long run: ruclips.net/video/UvQK5CsYXKc/видео.htmlsi=qTItH59ajKxfmiC-&t=339 It would be interesting to perhaps have a series where I compare a runner running fresh with what happens when we put their form under duress. Either late in a race, as you suggest, or at the midpoint and end of a VO2 Max test, for example. Would be interesting to see what unravels first when the wheels start to fall off!
