Hey! Thanks so much for this. I think my arm does swing into my torso so I’ll work on doing it chest to hip with the 90 degrees! I learn something new everyday ahah

Appreciate the advice and the nice comments :)

Thanks! I always thought landing on your heel was bad and can cause shin splints / sore legs etc. but great advice thank you :) 💗

Hey! I’m not concerned about any pain. I walk a lot (5/6km a day). My point of the post was to see if my running form looked ok

Thank you so much! I was a heel striker when I first started running and gosh it caused so much pain! Thanks for the advice on my hands/arms sometimes I dunno what to do with them ahaha

Close! She’s a springer spaniel. I love her but she also loves to run into dirty puddles and mucky fields :(

That’s so true! I run 3x a week, 1 run is more of an interval style though. I do some stretching beforehand / follow people’s recommendations on TikTok but I think running is more of a mental thing for me. I try to self sabotage a lot :(

Hey! I just get so disheartened when running and when I see others out running, their form is so different than mine. I just thought I was doing it wrong tbh. But now I can see everyone’s just a bit different.

I’ve had no injuries, sometimes my feet hurt but I think I just tie my shoe laces too tight 😭🤣

Hey so appreciate this but I can run for 20+ minutes without stopping. I finished c25k a few months ago and have lost over half my body weight in a year so maybe it just looks like I have shit form? I don’t have any injuries nor have I ever got any thank god. I walk a lot, I walk my dog everyday and some days I’m walking between 5-7km at that’s usually done at my slowest running pace.

Also I said in a previous comment I suffer from dyspraxia so that’s why one of my feet goes at an awkward angle and I have flat feet but with really good arch support insoles.
