A very cool video from the beach training this morning. When you look at my feet in this slo mo you can see exactly why we do runs like these. The small corrections I need to make due to the slipping in the sand, makes my feet work harder and trying to execute the running like on the track enforces and hopefully stabilizes the movement patterns we want to develop. Very effective training this time of the year!

Let’s go to the beach, each. Doing a lot of training on different surfaces to stabilize our technical execution in different situations. Or maybe we just wanted to see the ocean 🤷🏻‍♂️. A very cool video from the beach training this morning. When you look at my feet in this slo mo you can see exactly why we do runs like these. The small corrections I need to make due to the slipping in the sand, makes my feet work harder and trying to execute the running like on the track enforces and hopefully stabilizes the movement patterns we want to develop. Very effective training this time of the year! My brain is so predictable. After the first hill run today, coach said: “you were one second slower than the others.” But we both missed that I started further away and therefore ran longer (and was running fast enough). But my brain went: “what!? Too slow!? Let’s go full speed in the next run!” (Competitive much?) That this wasn’t very smart I realized in the runs that followed. It resulted in  one of the hardest sessions I ever did. But I survived and that means another good session in the books. Three more days left in South Africa!
