RUN FASTER WITH THIS EASY, PROVEN TWEAK.

- Nicholas English

Flex For Speed

The need for speed is a small flame that burns deep within all runners, regardless of ability or pace. And while there are plenty of structured plans and training methods for helping you to up your pace and efficiency, one of the best places to start is with body mechanics. Focusing on ankle dorsiflexion – moving your toes toward your shins, or flexing your ankle – during your next run is one tiny tweak that can yield big benefits for all runners.

The Time I DNF'd At School Sports Day

No race makes me as nervous. No event seems as pressurised. No competition feels like it has the potential to bring the reputation I've built - slowly, block by block - crashing down like a Jenga tower. The dads' race at my children's school sports day fills me with a deep dread.
