1 Minute Drill to improve your foot strike and cadence!
Your what? Common running form work on is overstriding.
Overextending the leg rather than keeping it landing under your body.
Overstriding can lead to increased force loading on the shin.
I give this to my athletes as part of their warmup.

Attention First-Time Half Marathon Runners,
Here are my top three tips to get you to the finish line:
ποΈ Start your training plan early. Keep it simple, structured and build from your current fitness level.
πͺ Integrate strength and mobility training. Build joint strength so your body stays healthy and pain-free as your weekly running distance grows.
π Keep yourself accountable. Write down your goal. Tell your friends and family. Join a group to encourage each other.
π
BONUS TIP: Have fun. Explore new running trails. Try new workouts. Do other events and meet people.
