Having considered the possibility of changing your running style the question arises – how do I do that?
There are usually 2 driving factors that make athletes consider changing their style. It is often athletes that are quite experienced but always have a niggling knee pain, an achilles that flares up every few months or a back pain that spasms every now and again.

For the last 10 years I have been learning and developing my knowledge of this forgottensubstance. Fascia is found throughout the body and gives us structure, shape and form. The steak eaters among you will recognise the “clingfilm” like layers that surround the steak can be seenthroughout the meat, the “marbling” that the butcher gets so excited about. Dig a little deeper andpull a few muscle fibres apart and it will unveil fascia in between each individual fibre.

The recent out pouring of information about the cycling world in the era when Lance Armstrong was King is overwhelming and depressing. There were always rumours about what went on, but to hear how many riders were doping and how often is really shocking. It is becoming clear that young riders joining pro teams were given almost no choice. Contracts were 10 times more valuable if you doped and if you didn’t your ability to keep up with your team mates and therefore add value to the team became non existent.
