#174: How to run faster! What's technically going on and what variables can you 'hack' for better performance


Listen Later

Today's episode breaks down the (only!) two factors that contribute to your speed - cadence and stride length - and how at least one of these need to increase for you to get faster.



Whilst this should happen naturally over time with good training principles that I shared in episode 173, it can be worth having a look at cadence and stride length to see where improvements are going to come from.



I look at what each of these variables is, typical numbers to watch out for and share where I have made progress as I have got faster and where there is still room for improvement.



Finally I share how to work on these numbers with specific methods and tools you can add to your own training.



I have a few slots still available for one to one coaching which takes the guesswork out of your training and racing. Find out more here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.therunningrules.com/coaching
