To race is but a dream...

Hi Daz, you talking form there, how are your arms working for you while running in this manner?

Trying to keep the shoulders more relaxed and get slightly more turn in them in order to get the elbows higher out back. Arms on the 90, hands low. It’s not easy to get the full range of motion @ easy pace but more time to figure it out and make sure I’m not ending up spaghetti like or over compensating movements and therefore losing of posture and form in other areas.

I haven’t forgotten about the arms at all from you mentioning them off the treadmill video from 2017, they just don’t do a lot on my easy pace as I don’t corkscrew the whole body at all.

With the nerve problems I have the range of motion in the shoulders is limited so need a slight swivel incorporated in order to help get those elbows higher. Will generally only be at pace or sprint finishing I think as it’s not really natural for me now. If it helps with the marginal gains then I will have to learn to do it. Hoping it’s something that occurs more naturally as I get faster anyway.
