Research
While doing research I found a book that I really enjoyed. The book was
Run For Life by Roy Wallak because it opens up a different work of
running. A more precise world where you have to work to run rather than
just do it. A world where performance matters. This book focused on the
proper aspects of running rather than just training. Yes training is
important but its not the only thing to focus on. When it comes to long
distance running its important to take preventative measures. Long
distance is a lot of repetition. The constant pounding cause wear on
your ligaments. This is why so many runners have knee, hip, feet
problems.
This is why proper form is so important. Proper form helps you get the
most out of your run. This emphasizes the important parts of your body
to make you more efficient.
Some of the important parts are forefoot running, this helps prevent
heel striking. Heel striking is why runners get shin splints. Heel
striking creates pulling in the shin, which causes pain, especially
after several miles.
