3 small things to improve your running technique<\/strong><\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Dynamic balance with upper\/lower limb coordination – improve\u00a0the ability to control the body during movement, try the Stork and the\u00a0lunge in\u00a0Section 5.<\/a>\"\"<\/li>\n
  2. Be prepared for twists and turns by working on your agility – try the Ladder drills in\u00a0Section 8<\/a>. No ladder? No problem, use sticks or bamboo canes from the garden just like\u00a0Jo Pavey<\/a>!\"\"<\/li>\n
  3. Increase the Pace \u2013 try these challenges in\u00a0Section 16<\/a>\u00a0to work on your steady and sustained paced runs. Use visual cues such as trees or lampposts to increase the distance. (Steady running is defined as approximately 70%-80% of maximum heart rate. Sustained Pace Running is approximately 80%-90%+ of maximum heart rate.)\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    Share with us and your fellow leaders how you get on with these sections and any others you’ve found\u00a0particularly\u00a0useful \u2013 Happy Developing!\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n

    Interested in what you’ve read but not entirely sure what is Athletics 365?<\/em><\/p>\n

    Athletics 365 is a multi-event development programme. <\/em><\/p>\n

    It introduces athletes to the fundamental skills of athletics, focusing not only on how fast someone runs but also, more importantly, on developing the technical skills (\u2018how\u2019 to run). <\/em><\/p>\n

    The programme is broken down into nine progressive stages. Each stage provides athletes with new and progressively more difficult challenges appropriate to their stage of development.<\/em><\/p>\n
