You are about to read (and hopefully study and practice) a
step-by-step program that will improve your current running
abilities and prevent unnecessary injuries. While this is intended
for beginning runners, it will also help those who consider
themselves experienced runners. Unfortunately, many people believe
that they can just go out and run. I know because that's what I
used to believe. Before I started running, I was involved with many
sports (cycling, hiking, martial arts, and weight lifting). I
thought I could just add some running to be ready to do a
triathlon. I remember how painful those early runs were to both my
body and ego. I huffed and puffed, and pounded (literally) the
pavement. Luckily my brain finally kicked in, and I started to
study every book and magazine I could find on running technique.
Eventually, I earned a certificate as a Track and Field Coach by
the USATF. With this new information I had a science-based approach
to running. What a difference Now I could go out and cruise along
for several miles with the same amount of effort as going for a
walk in the backyard. And even stranger, it was actually enjoyable.
AMAZING This little book is the result of years of my own running,
as well as experience gained in teaching classes for beginning
runners. Everything in this book has been tried and tested, and
proven to work on people of all shapes and sizes - those who have
never run or those who ran "way back before the kids." I am
presenting the information my beginning runners receive in
class-including the "why" each of these steps are so important,
followed by exercises to help you develop good technique. I would
like for you to learn how to run safely and efficiently, so you can
enjoy the health benefits and pleasures that come from running. As
part of this book you also have access to videos that will explain
the 8 steps visually. Please go to www.coachkfitness.net for more
information. A glossary at the end of the book explains the
technical terms I use throughout.
