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 :)

My pleasure! Perhaps I should do a follow-up roasting your old running style vs this more refined Ben?!

@MattdeFreitas Ай бұрын

You have a very nice natural running style Ben - they picked a good demonstrator

@jrabago1 Ай бұрын

Ben, you said you can keep pace for about 3k. Wondering where do you decide in which sections in the 5k race would you use.amd keep this pace ? At the beginning, middle or end of 5k race?

@BenIsRunning Ай бұрын

@@jrabago1 Its more of a case i can't sustain for 5k so I just slightly slower throughout than this pace so i don't blow up. My current 3k PB pace is 2:50/k where as my 5k is 2:56/k.

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.

The best thing around these paces is to try to keep your cadence and turnover going. It’s how I went from 8km marathon pace to 6km pace in a year from around now!

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

Thanks for such a great video. No matter how much we try Zone 2 running if mechanism is not correct then we can't catch faster pace. I hardly run 1 mile in 7:45. It will take time to be adapt new method, but I surely try to follow this as much as possible.

Interesting to see the increase in vertical displacement with decrease in speed. Possibly the maintenance of elastic recoil of the achilles/calf complex [at higher pace] acting as 'tight calves' at the slower pace?

This is an excellent video - i saw a recent video of Ben running in some track races and thought he looked like he had an excellent running style. Do you guys offer a service to review running style like this? I am a masters runner, and once a sub 4 minute miler, but I've seen my style dramatically change over the years and I know it affects my running speed now (which is still fairly decent) and would love to improve it

But these are all quite "high" paces for a normal person. I'm relatively new to running, and I'm finding having a high cadence and a good form while jogging or running at slower pace to be much more difficult than what's displayed in this video

@Emil-ej5of Ай бұрын

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 Ай бұрын

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: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i9yBfph02L-8e5c.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!

Its genes and its all natural. Thats why no body can run better than kenyans n Ethiopians in long runs and jamaicans in short runs. I think consiously we cant do. Its all natural n the biggest factor is rate of oxygen consumption n energy we spent. Type of muscle mitochodrial density n many genetic factors play role otherwise everyone would have qualify for Olympics
