Adding strides to the end of your easy runs is a great way to turn your legs over a bit quicker, recruit some more muscle fibres and improve your running biomechanics.
Add 4 – 8 (depending on how you feel) to the end of your easy runs. Make sure you do these on good ground with the wind behind (every little helps)!
Build for 5 secs, stride for 5 seconds (at 90% effort), slow down for 5 seconds. Walk/jog for a minute or two and go again.
Here is a quick video to talk you through them. Have fun!
