ABOUT ME: I'm James Dunne, a runner, sports rehabilitation therapist (similar to physical therapist) and coach based in the UK (Norwich and London).

Since 2007 I've been working with athletes focusing specifically on helping distance runners and triathletes overcome injury and improve performance through developing their individual running technique.

Running biomechanics and physical therapy are real passions of mine. I love to help runners run strong and stay injury free.

Gone running 15 km just after watching the video 2 hours ago, it’s a game changing for me. I thought it would be hard at first, but it was the opposite, a much lower heart rate at the same pace. Incredible feel. 164 bpm at 4’24/km for 15 km. Start running 4 month ago, a lot to learn but so happy… Thank you so much for this vidéo, help a lot 🙏

I’m afraid I just found the most underrated running channel on YouTube. Immediately subscribed.

I had a little bit of vascular headache going on when I went for my run a weeks ago, so I made a conscious effort to minimize vertical movement. Had a great run.

[rashmichouhan]

The best content I have watched so far on running. Thank you

[WahidinDarmawan]

Yes agree, always smile on the running. Give your energy and moodbooster.

[blancamancilla]

Thank you very much! I am having trouble with my overloaded calves. Finally found a very sound explanation as to why. And yes, I found the video from your email.

I also have a lot of pronation like Joshua, which causes pain mainly when hiking or standing for long periods of time. However, i once bought stiff pronation stability running shoes. and they actually caused a lot of knee and hip pain, because they didn't cushion anything. HOWEVER, for walking and standing all day they actually relieved pain. So for running i use a neutral Nike Zoom with lots of padding, and for standing all day i use normal shoes (dress shoes, all-stars, whatever) and put arch-support insoles in them like Superfeet Green.

Thanks for these running form videos! Can you do a video on Parker Valby?

[welwellwell]

Thanks for the video and insight. One question, the arm movement across the body, does that detract from forward momentum?

[anthonyboyle]

One of the best i have seen. Great content

7:31. Watch video of Eliud Kipchoge breaking the world record at the Berlin Marathon (either time) and you will see he i often smiling. Especially towards the end. When you know he is really hurting. That smile helps manage is effort.

Strike supination followed by pronation before toe up is normal and optimal.
Foot strike on outer edge of midfoot provides a necessary but slight external hip rotation (knee out) for weight loading and flexing all leg and ankle joints.
When loaded, foot pronates as it passes behind center of mass, and shifts your hip to a slight internal rotation (knee to center). This is the optimal position for the plyometric spring of tendon recoil and extension of all hip, leg, and ankle joints, giving best flight time before the opposite foot strike.

Really enjoyed this analysis, thanks. As a scientist I appreciate the detailed observation, with useful suggestions rather than rigid prescriptions.
Just sad my current state of health means it'll be ages before I get to apply any of it...but will keep watching anyway!

[bronson]

You will be the reason I go pro in baseball🙏

I run 15km three times a week in a park in Korea, but it's not easy. Do pull-ups as a strength exercise.

[hannesaltenfelder]

Did you know that Cheptegei's 5k world record is published on strava?

[kenmare]

Great video: Illustrates clearly why if due to insufficient hip mobility and use of poweful core muscles calf muscles and archilles get over used. Know the pain well.

[Ailoy_]

It does sound silly, but smiling and keeping my head empty when running actually helps a lot.
It allows me to not overthink my running and stay relaxed

[simracerone]

I’m 6’1 and 220lbs and I never cared about running until the age of 30. Got myself some running shoes and after a few months running 2 miles twice a week I started having this terrible heel pain so I learned that my foot strike was wrong and now I’m a forefoot strike and my calves get super sore next day. Is there a technique to help me fixing my foot strike?

Il y a une forte pronation, mais de la cheville uniquement. Mais le coureur a le strict minimum en épaisseur de running et j'ai lu quelque part que c'est mieux de finir sa propulsion sur le gros orteil. Peut êtres que ce sont les raisons de cette pronation ? Super extension de la hanche et de l'ischio de Cheptegei, qu'il vaut mieux avoir solides. Super vidéo
