Want to negative split your next run or race?
I’ll run you through the steps to make it happen in this blog! (Puns intended)
Here’s the thing:
Most runners struggle to finish runs strong.
It doesn’t have to be this way — whether it’s hitting “the wall,” taking a trip on the struggle bus, or feeling like the wheels fell off.
You can run strong from start to finish, reel in runners by the dozen, and grab a nice PR.
Watch the video to learn how!
Making it Happen
As a run progresses, runners close down their stride and “muscle through it.”
It’s marked with a progressive shuffle and feet that barely clear the ground.
With each foot scuff, you lose speed, and the calves and quads start to burn.
The shuffling compounds with each mile, making it harder and harder to hold pace.
The result?
Your pace begins to climb. At first, it’s a few seconds per mile, then 10-15 seconds. Before you know it, you’re taking a trip on the struggle bus.
It doesn’t have to be like this.
You can finish runs strong and break through the dreaded “wall.”
How?
It’s what I’ll be teaching in Kneed for Speed, an annual four-week bootcamp that begins on July 31.
