Training Tips

  1. 1

    Take medium-length steps - too long kills your quads faster

  2. 2

    Keep torso upright, don't lean forward

  3. 3

    Push off your front heel, not your toes

  4. 4

    Find a breathing rhythm: inhale down, exhale up

Common Mistakes

  • Leaning forward - kills your balance and lower back

  • Steps too long - moderate stride is faster overall

  • Not going deep enough - rear knee must come close to ground

Sample Workout

4x50m walking lunges + 400m run. Rest 90s between sets.

Equipment

The None (bodyweight) is what you'll use on race day. If you're training seriously, having access to race-day equipment makes a real difference in your preparation.
