HappyG(rrr) Apr 2023 1:15pm, 4 Apr 2023 46,185 posts	0 HappyG(rrr) Pam, Gobi can advise you better, but for running form our club coaches tell us to "lead with pelvis". Imagine a rope around your hips pulling you forward. Chest and head stay up and tall looking forward not down. Tippy tappy short light steps. Some shoes sound slappy I note too. Where others, same running form, don't. So you could just blame shoes?! G

Gobi Apr 2023 1:35pm, 4 Apr 2023 79,634 posts	0 Gobi Pam runs so most of what HappyG(rrr) says is right , rather than lead from the pelvis I always say lean from the ankles not the waist.
