Running Basics: Working on Form

One of my 101 goals was to work on my running form. I was doing a good job of that – until I broke my foot, of course.

I won’t let that discourage me.

Back to running form: Kelly and I took a 4-week class with several members of the Dallas Galloway training group. Taking a class like this with friends is a great way to bond as a group.

After all, now we all know who prances (Kelly), who has great hair (Joe) and a host of other funny things. Seriously, I feel very bonded to this group because everyone is now in agreement that I need to buy a new running bra.

Yes, it was that kind of filming experience.

Running form class involved lots of short running, filmed segments that were later analyzed (as a group, as noted above) and drills to help us improve.

Kelly and I have to go back to take the final 2 classes from the 4-week series. We were out of town for one session and I’d broken my foot for the other.

And that, my friends, is why I’m not discouraged. There’s always a new opportunity to continue focusing on improvement. Plus improvement is a continual process, so I know that I’ll pick up something new the next time through the course.
