GORDON PIRIE’S LAWS OF RUNNING
Posted by admin
How to run properly and safely:
1. Running with correct technique (even in prepared bare feet), on any surface, is injury free.
2. Running equals springing through the air, landing elastically on the forefoot with a flexed knee (thus producing quiet feet). On landing, the foot should be directly below the body. (Walking is landing on the heels with a straight leg).
3. Any and all additions to the body damage running skill.
4. Quality beats quantity; the speed at which you practice the most will be your best speed.
5. Walking damages running.
