"From video in the New York Times article linked below: The Once and Future Way to Run."
Everywhere across the US, people are gearing up for yearly Thanksgiving day runs. Some will run for the pure joy of running while others will run in an attempt to burn some calories that they’ll more than adequately make up for later in the day.
(Personally I’ll be practicing intermittent fasting and some progressive resistance exercise the day before and the day after…but there are many approaches to dealing with the planned carbohydrate feast that is called Thanksgiving.)
If you’re going to run, then knowing how to run in a manner that protects your joints and prevents injury is something to be thankful for this Thanksgiving (and anytime you go for a run). A recent article in the New York Times talks about the 100-Up running method. As an anatomy and bio-mechanical geek, I love the info presented and think that there’s a lot of value in it…especially in the video and the graphic.
So without further adieu, here’s a link to the article: The Once and Future Way to Run. Make sure you check out the instructional video on the first page and the graphic to the right of the article that will pop-out if you click on it.
Take care!
