I`m 62 and been a runner for 47 years. You give great advice on here even for experienced runners. I`d add one more "tip." Enjoy your running and train to live, not live to train. Forget times, calories, how much good it does you and as often as possible just enjoy moving. Get to a beach and run calf deep in the surf where sky meets shore, even better still do it when its raining and just enjoy the moment and being young, fit and alive.

ha ha ha. Yeah... but in a good way. In the beginning, after watching a few videos on running form (not just Natacha's)... I thought.... wow... "Are these people crazy?"... and "How have I managed all these years?" Good tips from Natacha in this video though, and you pick up a few other tips here and there (from other sources). One of the things I've always done on some of my longer 10 to 21km (6 to 13 miles) runs is focus on that breathing in-time with my steps (I think mine was more like 2 out, 2 in). It also gets you to focus on your breathing - with an aim to try and slow it down, and take deeper breaths. I have tried to also run with my chin more level to the ground - to open the airway - that makes sense.

Remember... the first 15 minutes of a run are the hardest, just get past that and you’ll be great. ❤️

The thing which really helped my running (especially mid/long distance) was understanding my mentality. 1. So firstly, remember that it will always get easier ... and then harder... and then easier ... and then harder - your mental and physical state fluctuates so don't give up when it gets hard as it will always get easier again! 2. Secondly, I found that once I'd broken the 'sweat-barrier' I found it much easier to keep going. But getting to that point (which may be a couple of miles into the run) I find really really hard; the first (miles) are the worst!

One tip to help with breathing on long distances is to chew gum while running. It has a natural way of informing you of how your pacing and breathing is. If you can't breathe you're running too fast for a long distance and should slow down and also if you are like me, chewing forces me to breathe in a rhythmic manner as well. Hope this helps!

your channel is so important because it leaves people more knowledgeable than they were before watching your videos, as oppose to watching videos that are about nothing in particularly mindlessly. xx

Just used some of tips in this video and it was the best 5k I've done in a about 2 years, best pace and best feeling. I just focused on form and the tips in the video. I wasn't to go for an amazing pace but was literally blown away by how good the run was. It really shows sometimes how much you forget about the fundamentals and good form in pursuit of a PB or a faster time. Subscribed!

Perfect timing. After years of physio training I can start running again and following a 5k program. I need to handle it as long distance, because I got my knee dislocated 4 years ago to the inside. Can’t wait to finally reach the. 5k distance again 🙌🏻🙌🏻

my cardio has been pretty bad lately so i’m getting back into running. thank you so much for this!

I love your videos, I've only recently found ur channel but it has really inspired me and helped me. I used to not enjoy exercising and had an unhealthy relationship with food. But I'm working on improving that and u have really helped me

These are all great tips that have really helped me. Also, counting helps me maintain rhythm whilst running, and it helps me finish towards the end of the run when things get challenging.

Thanks for doing this. I tried leaning forward slightly on my run today, it made such a difference, so much easier.

My training has completely changed since I started watching your videos. I used to be a dancer, and I did track, but over time I lost sense of what my body was capable of. I have weight trained for two years, but I’ve since implemented the more athletic aspects of your training into my weight training (including running again), and I’m shocked at what my body can do. I am also seeing my body change rapidly (much faster than the two years it took to see drastic change from weight training). So thank you! I feel like I’m finding my heart in being active again.

For mid level runs, once in a while I recommend running without music so that you can hear how your foot lands, the state of your breathing and pay attention to your form.

Thanks for this Natacha! Tried out your tips for my sprints this morning and felt a huge improvement

One of my favourite things about your videos is your personality. You are so cheerful and post! Keep up the good work!

So I’ve never been a runner, like I’ve probably ran a handful of times in my 25 years but lately I’ve been inspired to run more because I know it’s so good for you and my boyfriend is in the US Army and he obviously has to run for his job and he inspires me to run more and I would like to be able to run with him so hopefully this video helps me. Thank you, Natacha!

I used your technique for uphill running yesterday in a 5K race with many long steep hills on the course, and I felt so much lighter! Particularly the footstrike, but also using arms while staying relaxed. I passed quite a few people who were nearly hyperventalating and I felt in control of my pace, and even joyful! Thank you for the tips!

seriously you are the best fitness youtuber i have ever seen you influence us so much in a good way not just our physical but also our mental like we dont really have to restrict what we eat or count every calory in our foods just to be "FIT" and the way you give tips or informations isnt boring unlike other fitness youtubers

I find lately that I get really unmotivated for middle-distance but for some reason sprinting and endurance have been super motivating for me! These were great tips!!

Thank you sooo much Natacha! I haven’t been able to run after my knee injury because I felt pain all over my body and it got to the point where I just hated running. But after watching your video, I realized that there were multiple things wrong with my form. I decided to go out for a run today and make adjustments. I was able to find that refreshing feeling during and after my run today, which I haven’t felt since my knee injury. My muscles burned but it was a good type of pain, if that makes sense haha. I’m watching your other vids as well and they are super informative! Thx again ^~^

Many thanks for the tips. I’ve just archived my PB for the year, 1500 meters 6:07 from 6:56. At 57, I’m always looking for improvements in my running technique. Excellent advice thanks again.

As a 30-something fairly new to running (less than 2 years), learning correct form and technique has been helpful in keeping the enjoyment of running alive for me. Your videos like this one are great. Thank you!

I'm 47 and have been running off and on my whole life. Just got back into it two months ago, great video.

Thanks Natacha. I recently got into 5k runs 3 times a week so this is useful👍. I turn my last 100m into a sprint finish where I run all out like a crazy kid. It’s become my fave section.

Wow! Even though I haven’t ran (save the treadmill) in years, this video has inspired me so much to start road running again. Fantastic tips and so informative. Thanks

I’m fairly new to running and I used some of your tips on my run this morning, and OMG they made all the difference! I hit a new PB!! Turns out I didn’t need more water breaks...I needed air! Now that I’m conscious of keeping my chin up, it’s so much easier to push myself further. I’m also learning to appreciate the uphills and be more careful going downhill. Thank you for these tips ❤️

Excellent advice; personally always found running downhill easier, definitely on recent run at Snowdon.

Just started running after an injury caused by improper form. Starting from zero again and really needed this. Thank you for the useful information!

This was the most useful video I didn’t know I needed!! 👏🏽👏🏽 Thanks as always Natacha! ❤️

The true embodiment of perfection

loved the tips!! Have you ever considered releasing a (gym) strength/training guide specifically for runners?? thanks for the video :D

Thank you,I can honestly say this is the best running blog I’ve watched.awesome work well done 👊🏻

I'm going for my second marathon in October; the first was New York 21 years ago. Thanks for the natural enthusiasm- don't change! And some important tips which I'll put to good use:) x

I would love to see a treadmill version of this video! Like tips for sprinting and long distances when you don’t have access to an outdoor track

This is awesome info. I run trails at 8000 ft elevation. Lots of hills. Going to use this to help improve my technique.Tank you so much.

watched this and hit a new PR afterward! :) thanks girl, you are literally my favorite

I’m a regular runner but I’m always trying to improve my technique and posture. Your video is a great breakdown of how techniques differ by distance.

I loved this!! 😍Natacha, could you also make a gym shoe review? I would love to try new shoes for distance running and lifting! Have been using NMDs for gym for a year and really loving them, and trying through Asics for running at the moment 😊

I run high school XC and I’d stick with asics. I love mine, but I feel like it’s a personal choice

Trying to get to a 17:00 2 mile run! I have a long way to go but videos like these help so much :)

I’ve always struggled with side stitches and years ago fell into the habit of running my first mile with a 4/3 pattern (inhale for 4 strides, exhale for 3) and then switching to the 3/2 pattern you mention. It really does help. And over many miles, it adds to the meditative quality of the run which I love.

I watched this video yesterday n tried your technique today. Honestly I was surprised that it worked immediately! I saw an improvement in my timing for a 3km run. Gonna watch more of your vid !
