It's important that you learn correct technique, as simple as it sounds you do have to learn"barefooting"Originally Posted by southernsoftie
To be honest, I just aim for the ground with the forefoot and just hope everything follows from there. Given it's natural running, I thought it'd come, well, naturally!
Where can I get a more detailed description/demonstration of correct technique? And I s'pose more importantly, how can I check I'm doing it correctly?
Its not just a case of going from your big "squidgy" heavily built up shoes to going barefoot or minimalist.......well not unless you want to injure yourself.
Talk to a POSE coach or runner and they will guide you in the right direction.
I spoke to Lakes Runner in Ambleside yesterday and they are really keen on the whole minimalist thing, they have free lecture on POSE.
It would be worth giving them a bell.
