Timestamps of big takeaways
[00:22] It's Never Too Late to Improve
We chat about an inspiring runner in his late sixties who thought it might be too late to fix his "creaky knees" - until he improved his personal record in a 5K after working on his form.
[01:50] Understanding Stride Length: The Broad Jump Analogy
Stride length is a byproduct of good form rather than something you actively create.
[04:00] The Speed-Stride Connection
Listen in as we explore how elite sprinters achieve the highest stride lengths while maintaining incredibly quick cadences of 250-300 steps per minute.
[05:52] The Lightbulb Moment
Our runner finally discovered the perfect balance between pulling his feet and allowing his body to travel forward, leading to both increased stride length and faster running times.
[07:29] The RunRX Method: Breaking Down the Investment
We pull back the curtain on our coaching process, explaining why we structure our program the way we do and how the three-month progression typically works: mind understanding, body following, and finally, everything clicking together.
[10:13] The Power of Live Coaching
Having eyes on your form makes such a difference in your running journey!
You shouldn't be afraid to be "looked at" during coaching sessions. Virtual coaching creates a comfortable environment for improvement without the pressure of an audience.
