Original caption
A lot of races do not fall apart because the pace was too fast…👇 they fall apart because too much energy leaked out too early. 1️⃣ When your shoulders get tight Tension makes every stride cost more than it should. 2️⃣ When your feet get heavy Loud, pounding steps waste energy you will wish you had later. 3️⃣ When your stride starts reaching You stop moving efficiently and start fighting the ground. That’s the difference. Waste less. Stay smooth. Keep your speed. Run like a girl!
