Teknik

Running Times Magazine är verkligen en guldgruva för fina artiklar. Här är en om löpteknik.

Invändningen mot att förbättra sin teknik låter ofta så här:

If you're thinking, "That's all well and good for college runners and pros, who have all day for their running, but I have only an hour a day total for my running, so I'm better off spending that time just getting in the miles."

En timme om dan sju dagar i veckan, kan man ju drömma om; men invändningen från Pete Magill är helt övertygande:

"That would be a great argument," he says, "if it were true. But if you have only an hour a day to devote to your running, the first thing you've got to do is learn to run. If you bring bad form into your running all you're going to be doing for that hour a day is reinforcing bad form. If you spent even one of those days per week, or just a bit of time in those sessions, now you would be spending time actually training with good form, so instead of throwing away that hour every day you would actually be using it to train with the form that's going to apply to your race speed and to your efficiency when running.
