Mike's Video Series on Run Form...Now Available!!!
Hello Everyone!
I hope that your 2020 is off to a great start! My long-awaited video series on proper running form is now up on Youtube! The brainchild was ~6 years ago, but it's finally done, whew! Many of you reading this blog made a small investment in me when you signed-up for coaching. Otherwise, I hope you find the video series beneficial. Please feel free to share!
I'll eventually add more videos to my Youtube page, like a "Coach's Corner", as in a series of short 1-5 minute videos where I discuss various topics (e.g., sections of my book), so subscribing to the DCRC Youtube Channel also helps.
Here are the quick links to the videos in the series:

P.S. As you'll see, the main 3 videos (the "main beef") on stride rate + stride length + foot strike are loooong, and that is intentional, as these 3 topics are the "main beef". I elected not to break the longer videos up into even smaller ones because it would potentially scramble the order of them when someone was watching, so for simplicity's sake, I stacked the videos just as I present them during a Running 101 session.
