HOW TO RUN THE RIGHT WAY
A couple of years back barefoot running was big news - for about a month, until most guys put their shoes back on. Still, this fad can help you RUN FASTER WITHOUT INJURY. by Geoff Van Dyke
RUNNING IS ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR FORMS OF EXERCISE in America, yet, according to devotees of barefoot running, almost everyone does it wrong. They think we shoe-wearing runners tend to overstride and land on our heels, which slows us down and leads to shin splints, sore tendons, and knee pain. We could all be a lot faster and less sore, our barefoot brothers say, if we would learn to run right.
But most guys aren't about to ditch their Asics, which is why shoe¬less running never really caught on. That's a shame, because running au naturel requires you to use proper form: keeping your center of gravity over the balls of your feet, landing on your mid- or forefoot rather than on your heel, and taking shorter, more fluid strides.
The increasingly popular Pose method of running, developed by Russian track coach Nicholas Romanov in the 1970s and brought to the U.S. in the 1990s, shares many basic principles with barefoot running, without the risk of cuts and scrapes. Pose runners believe each stride is a sequence of “poses” designed to make gravity propel you. The key is to keep your weight forward and make your strides short and light; you shouldn't be clomping along like a Clydesdale.
Pose coach Connie Sol recommends doing the following drills once or twice a week. She also suggests running barefoot (or in socks) on a golf course or in a park with debris-free grass. Try it for 10 minutes once weekly to start, then add a minute or two each week. If you think like a barefooter, better running form will become second nature.
