Hop or jump or spring high enough so your landing foot has time to start coming rearward to meet the ground. If too little vertical jump your landing foot will skid the ground in front of you like a brake. If too high a jump then your landing foot will strike the ground behind your center and you will feel like you are tripping. Feel the jump in each step, try higher and lower, and see where higher and lower enable your foot strike to happen. Running is just jumping at an angle...
? Kipchoge does not breath primarily through his nose. Just because his mouth isn't gaping wide that doesn't mean he isn't breathing through it. I don't know where you are getting your info, but it sure does sound like you're making this up to try and sound smart
Your video super! Congrats!, I ran until now for the year 2020 only, many ultra marathons races register in duv ultra marathons statistics many thousands! miles!! 😊😊and I have to do one more race 100km on December 2020..
Thank you for this breakdown. In some video breakdown’s of Kipchoge’s technique the commentators said he is landing with his forefoot but in this video it looks like he is landing with the mid-foot - especially when you see his whole stride. Maybe it’s the camera angle or where you freeze the frame? I’m not an expert - just trying to pick up tips to improve my form and prevent injuries.
Definitely mid-foot I would say. The key is not to focus on where you are landing your foot but rather on best alignment with gravity. Always a short STEP in front of the body.
I beg to disagree in regard to the cadence which is by no means 180 s/m, but 192 s/m. It would cost too much of energy expense to maintain 180s/m at all speeds. The faster you run the higher the cadence simple biomechanical eqaution.. Blessings mate!
There are many benefits to a quick cadence since it activates elastic energy through muscles, tendons, and fascia. Although it seems counterintuitive this is more effective and efficient for running than a slow cadence. A slower cadence means more ground contact and requires more muscle contraction to propel the body forwards (windlass mechanism). A quicker cadence encourages a shorter step in front of centre of gravity, therefore reducing over-stride; it reduces rate of perceived exertion when changing speed/gear; and studies also show that it can reduce the risk of lower limb injuries*.

This action or “elastic recoil” is sometimes referred to as an “impulsive” and “springy” gait, rebounding along on compliant legs and unlocked knees. Instead of using all the body’s energy, the leg and foot have a built-in “return energy” system for a significant amount of energy. This relies on the Achilles and other tendons to recycle impact energy. In running, the body has an effective muscle work-minimizing strategy - many of the foot muscles don’t technically push you off the ground like during walking [The windlass mechanism] takes impact energy, sometimes referred to as ‘elastic energy’ associated with gravity and impact, and uses it for propelling the body forward naturalrunningcenter.com/2011/05/01/elastic-recoil/

Why then do most coaches tell you that your c of g should be directly over your leading foot as it lands? The fastest man in the world has his leading foot way in front of his c of g and the commentator hesitated and very quickly added that it was only a couple of seconds before it aligned.
Landing and loading does not happen at the same time. There is flex in the sole, and flex in the tendons and joint angles. Significant loading of the tendons would be delayed by proprioception until the COG would be directly above or slightly in front of the sole loading point. It's impossible to analyze this to any satisfaction without a high quality, high framerate video where you can identify the exact video frame when muscles tense up. In a 30fps video at 20kph running speed the body moves 19cm from one frame to the next. That is far too much to identify accurately the limb positions which youtube videos like this attempts to do. You really need 120fps (5cm/frame) and a higher object resolution.
you should not focus on eluid the guy infront of him running same form man. what you looking for is in wrong direction study eluid how he get his energy it called chi power study chinese marshal art
This video is from 2019 when Kipchoge was the WR holder and had just ran sub 2 hours in an unofficial marathon. Kiptum was just getting really good but died before we could see more of him so technically he is done with all due respect.
The secret is running relaxed. Cheers!

Useful analyis. Great example of biomechanical efficiency. Thanks.
I Will become like Eliud Kipchoge
It's been a year.
Are you any closer ?
Skinny?
Are you Eliud yet?
haha i will become batman
His Running form is perfect 🙂❤
Thank you Gray for a brilliant observation l have learned from you
Excellent video!
😍👍 Great analyse coach, tqvm
In a few short hours I think you're going to want to make a video showing Kelvin Kiptum's running form (Chicago Marathon 2023)
Just amazing.

Its impossible to run that fast just breathing thru the nose , that's obvious 😅
Breathing through his nose lmfao
Nice analysed!
Thanks!

Thanks for your feedback and keep me updated with all your adventures!
@@GrayCaws yes! Going to complete in ultra marathons races only as many kilometers as possible as much old as possible 😊😊
If I watch every running video I might learn how to run properly but there are secrets still I’m sure
Everyone looks and runs the same with the same effortless run at this level. It's something else and i dont have a clue
Bro I can barely see any up & down movement from the side view. Also, even if he is going fast, his face, neck, & shoulders look relaxed.
Been a while. Anybody here even close to becoming Eliud kipchoge already?
no but I can lick my elbow
I can breathe and walk simultaneously... so that's a start 😂

Many thanks for your response!
Great video!! Keep the content coming 👍🏽
Thank you! Will do!
He is light 47Kgs!

why keep talking about kipchoge he is done. Talk about Kiptum.
