Timestamps of big takeaways
How Can You Run Faster?
00:35 - The topic the coaches are getting into in this episode is running slower to run faster
01:05 - Most coaches use an 80/20 rule - 80% easy runs, 20% harder workouts
02:28 - Don't slow down movement when running slower, just relax your upper body
03:06 - To run faster, most think they should move legs faster, but this just makes you more tired
Your Body Position Can Impact Your Speed
04:46 - Running faster is about lifting your body higher to increase the angle of fall
05:20 - Find a comfortable "fall angle" you can hold for your easy runs
06:54 - Challenge is maintaining an even pace, not starting too fast
07:10 - Focus on holding a fall angle rather than thinking "slow" or "fast"
09:12 - Don't assume faster is moving body parts more, it's using gravity and falling forward
Our Challenge to You
10:01 - Try this approach and report back to us on social media
