If you on the treadmill, then it would be good to get a vid of the following:
1. foot placement from the rear and the front
2. side view - full length of body
3. front view - full length of body, with arm carriage and swing shown
hope this is possible

10.35 km
137 ave HR
Struggled at the start of this run to keep the HR under 150. Waited for it to settle, it didn't. In the Nd I knocked the incline off the TM and through the last 40 mins Th HR drop and dragged the average down. I thought it may have been because
I wasn't fueled properly the 24hrs before.

5km pace session.
2.18km warm up.
5km - 22:57. No splits. Felt like fairly even splits. Within 1-2 each km
2.27km warm down.
Couldn't manage this any quicker. As soon as I set off to do the paced effort I knew there was nothing in the legs. I held a steady pace for the whole 5km though so it was a steady paced effort with what felt like very a very even pace throughout the effort. It was hard work and took a bit of mental strength to see it through as I knew that the 22:30 wasn't going to happen. A few positives to take - I got it done. Didn't quit. Still ran a reasonable time.
Had a terrible night sleep prior and the evening before my HR was a little elevated so there may be something underlying, I think nothing serious though as have been ok since the run. Took the dog for a nice long walk to keep the legs loose and have been ok.
HI Daz, will get to looking at the videos shortly
give yourself a few days easy to reboot
how are you feeling now
TheEd
I have been ok, resting HR has remained at 46 for the last few days. I think it is the legs suffering a bit of fatigue from tbeing back on cycle. The tops of the calves/area just below the back of the knee has been a bit tight on both legs at the moment.

This plod last night loosened the legs up a little. Will take it relatively easy this week. Looking to to the end of cycle paced effort on Saturday at Parkrun so will do the week as follows; 30mins easy, 30-40 mins inc fartlek 3 x 2 mins @ 4:30/km, 30-40 mins easy, rest, Parkrun.
OK .. feedback from vids
Daz, don't change anything .. you have a current foot placement and style of running that must not be tampered with
develop core strength and do press ups and pulls .. use your bodyweight to gain
the development of the above, will assist you when you get faster
nice to see
now for Rob .. what speeds is he running at and what distances?
over to you, TheEd
Daz, make sure to be recovered before the ParkRun
don't over stretch the calf muscles before the ParkRun, and focus more on recovery after the 5k
enjoy

I just coached Rob to a 20:51 parkkrun. so as it stands he is a little quicker than me at the moment. He runs distances 5 - 10 km. we are currently on sub 45 plan together. his 6 x 1 km session was at 4:00/km pace. In the vid the TM is at 15 kmph or 4:00 pace.
I realise my core is weak at the moment and am gradually building the strength training into the routine.
I am very surprised that there isn't anything that needs changed, or have i got it nailed? haha!!

Nice and easy this week. Legs are twitching today so something is going right. Will give update tomorrow post run. :p
OK .. when it comes to Rob's stride pattern, he is more of a heel striker but instead of messing around with either of your running styles
we could look to bring a hillwork session in on Day 12 (normally a paced run)
would you be interested in this?
