Description

Short episode summary Have you ever wondered if you should run like a duck or a pigeon? It’s a question that left Coach Valerie wondering why these two animals were used as an analogy for running. In this episode join Coaches Caroline and Valerie as they discuss running and whether you should run like a duck, a pigeon, or neither of the two.   Timestamps of big takeaways   The Difference Between a Duck and a Pigeon [1:00] Coach Valerie wondered why a duck and a pigeon were used as an analogy about running. She thought that maybe it was because of how they run, wherein ducks move their feet fast while a pigeon is a walker.   Running Mistakes [2:14] Sometimes when people run, they encounter some injury, or something seems wrong. This may be because you are doing something wrong in your run. You may be a reacher, marcher, pusher, or leaner. Most people don’t realize this. That’s where RunRX can help - we can teach you the proper way to run.   Not Like a Duck or Pigeon [5:59] You will learn how to utilize your body weight through running. You develop your running and support skills. Understanding the movement and starting to run will seem fun. It wouldn’t feel like you’re a duck or a pigeon.   Easy Running [7:07] They sometimes say that a runner must go on an easy run. However, Coach Valerie says easy runs don’t exist. When running, you use every single muscle in your body, and it’s one of the most intense cardiovascular activities.   [7:53] Running is not easy, but you have the power to make running easier on you and your body. Some people make it look easy to run. You should work at your own pace and figure out how to work with your body weight.  And, RunRX can help you learn the standard of movement that will enable you to run pain-free.   Control [10:29] You can only control what you can control. RunRX can provide the ideal training, but only you have the power to follow through.   Rate, Review & Subscribe Reminder Don’t forget to like and subscribe to our show.
