My name is Mark Hainsworth (aka cabletow) and I have been a runner and a skier for many years. But due to poor form I recently became a convert to POSE and it has rejuvenated my running for me.
I also am a General practitioner with a sports medical interest and practice. This is my primary reason for becoming a Pose coach. Not only is the Posetech web site full of stories of runners who have been helped through and after injuries - but I see this everyday in my practice. For too many years I have told injured runners to stop running for long periods, advised them to get bigger and bigger shoes and even injected them, to try to help them, mostly only to repeat the cycle a few months later.
Since coming to pose and helping people treat and overcome the root of all their injuries I now have the most valuable tool and skill to make a real difference and help them.
Learning Pose method has been a fascinating journey of discovery. I have learned so much from Nicholas and for that I am eternally grateful. I want to learn more and I want to impart some of his wisdom to others.
Pose is not the dark side - it is enlightening and if nothing else I have met many friends through it.

Mark Qualified as a doctor in 1984 from Auckland University. In 1986 he completed a Diploma in sports Medicine in Otago. It was at this time that he began developing a special interest in overuse injuries due to pronation in runners. He became a member of the Royal college of General Practitioners in 1991 and has worked as a GP in Bildeston since 1993.
As an active GP he has a biomechanical and sports medical interest and has developed a practice in dealing with runners. He also offers an internet based service of running analysis which has proved very popular. This service allows him to review your running at a distance and make recommendations to help you see why you have got injured and what you can do to prevent this. Recommendations are made according o the principles developed by the POSE method of running.

Reduced Eccentric Loading of the Knee with the Pose Running Method
Conclusions: Pose running was associated with shorter stride lengths, smaller vertical oscillations of the sacrum and left heel markers, a neutral ankle joint at initial contact, and lower eccentric work and power absorption at the knee than occurred in either midfoot or heel-toe running. The possibility that such gait differences could be associated with different types and frequencies of running injuries should be evaluated in controlled clinical trails....
