- Hey everyone,
just wanted to share what I think has really helped me avoid getting hurt over the years and run consistently. I am no coach this is just based off my personal experience. Hope it helps you and if not hope you enjoy the video anyway.

Dear friends I have no idea where you live who you are, but the fact you like Dans videos, I know just by that you are all my kind of people
Well said Rickey! :)
Craft coffee, enjoying the moment, deep learners, lovers of life; those kinds of people
Hi I'm from Cambridge UK! And yes we sound like we got cool things in common!!
Running, coffee, good music, peanut butter, appreciating great video content....🤙🤙
@@AJoelInOne yes mate 👍
Yo dude,
Between this and your last video you've had a major impact on my life.
I am a year and four months sober from pretty intense alcohol abuse. I was considering giving drinking a shot again, saying "yeah I can handle it now for sure." I was leaning towards this decision to regress largely because I was bored, without motivation in any direction...
Then, I stumbled upon one of your videos -- I can't even remember how I came across it. I watched 3 or 4 of em, the last one being about your journey from Crohn's disease to ultrarunning. That shit hit me like a rock. The next day, I got out and went for a run, which was something that I absolutely hated for most of my life because I was almost always hungover and craving a beer.
On this first run after watching your vids, I felt fantastic. After that, I just kept going every single day (well, with a few rest days when my body tells me to calm it down). I am hooked, and I am further from taking a sip of alcohol than I have been in months. I can't tell you how much you have inspired me and jolted me in the right direction. Keep doing what you are doing, man. I'll keep running -- it's my new addiction.
Cheers!
Oh haha I remember how I found your videos now -- the Aeropress Demo!!! Not only have you inspired me to run and eat clean, but you've also shown me how to make a damn good cup of coffee.
Awesome! And yeah Aeropress rocks too ;)
Hey mate, thats bloody awesome to hear and made my day. Stoked for you there is nothing quite like discovering something like running. I look back at it often as a very special part of my life. Its crazy for me to think these videos could have an effect like that they have for you but im very glad they did. Stick at it!
Just watched a carefully crafted piece of art from start to finish. Dope.
Thanks mate very nice of you to say glad you liked it
He really does do wonders :)
I really appreciate your channel. I come here to relax and listen to a decent human being talk about life and interests in a very chill fashion. Huge value. Double whammy with all the running/nutrition insight too
Thanks for coming and I am glad stoked you like them.
Makes my day when I get the notification that Dan has uploaded a new video. Never disappointed. Always inspiring. Thank you Dan.
Agreed, the beautiful footage gets me excited to throw the running shoes!
One of the best videos on how to run properly. Clear and concise, bravo.
Great video. The big debate on footstrike is intense. I changed from heel strike to forefoot with vffs and then one day I had shin splints and was devastated. Took a look at my form and realized I was overstriding. Everyone needs to record themselves running to look at their form.
I remember starting out and thinking I just have to forefoot strike so I went out and forced that whilst still over striding. Could barely walk the next day haha
So happy you’ve posted again! You’re still a big inspiration for me!
Good stuff as always Dan.
Thank you for another amazing video Dan!
Always a good day when you post Dan
Thanks Dan, nice work!
Nicely said and created mate!!
Love your vids!
Killer video man
Welcome back. Delighted to have more quality videos to watch.
Awesome! Good to see you back posting vlogs buddy. Keep it going and crank more out. We all miss your content and quality filming! Cheers from NZ.
Thanks for another great video Dan. Hope you’re well!
This is great! Many thanks.
Loving your latest stuff D. Sweet as bro.
Ah man! I have missed your videos SO much!!!!
Brilliant video mate. Your tips are really gonna help.
Legend. Great video and nice to see you back Mr Whitehead
I see a notification for a new video from Dan, and I know I’m going to love it before I even see what it’s about ❤️
Very excited to be seeing new videos from you. Always pumped when I get the notification.
Very nice explenation and also video, top quality like always. Have a nice 2021. 🤙
Good see u Dan..glad yr well buddy x
Very helpful, thank you
Happy New Year Dan, hope you and family are well....👊🏻
Such a good video to help peeps
Fantastic drop - v helpful. Keep up the good work.
Happy new year!
Cheers for this, it really is helpful. Happy running!
Glad it helped
Excellent no nonsense explanation beautifully presented
Cheers Dan hope you are well
Can't wait to give this a peep later, Dan! Always enjoy the quality of your pieces - every shot is thought about carefully and it pays off every time.
Lookin healthy Dan x awesome
BRILLIANT! Man the quality you bring with the video, the content it SPEAKS VOLUMES! Thanks for always bringing the GOLD.
Great video content! I changed up my running Technique to this about 10yrs ago. Made a big difference. Nice to see you running again.
Bro, this is so good! Keep em coming
Will do mate thanks
Cheers Dan, hope everyone's well your end mate and best of luck for 2021.
Cheers mate you too
Superb! I've just started focusing on form to become more efficient and remain injury free
Really informative Dan. Happy New Year to you and your family. I hope you are all well. A great vid to start 2021 and hope to see more of you as I know they bring great value to your watchers and for you too going through the creative process.
Excellent advice.. happy 2021
Happy new year mate
I am so happy when I see you uploaded a video. I always save it till I get home so I can watch it on big TV. I know it will always be great. Thanks bro and please keep them coming.
Only found your content this morning, and i've easily binge watched about 15 of your videos. I love the cinematics!
Absolutely perfect explanation. I used to manage a running shop with 'gait analysis' and this is what I would tell people every day. Every customer would mention foot strike and I would blow their minds by explaining that it didn't matter. Beautiful video too, as always!
Dan, we really like you and your videos.
Happy New Year Dan!!! My best wishes!!!!
You too mate happy new year!
Thanks Dan, have been trying to increase my cadence will definitely give this a go. Missing the recipe videos!
Thanks mate. I must admit I have not been cooking much lately need to get going with that again
Miss you mate. Quality vid as per 🙌
Churrr bro keen to come and visit soon hopefully been way too long
Thank you for this running tutorial bunj. It will help me out big time with surf checks on the reg 🤘🏽😎
Happy to help. You do not want to be checking it and its pumping and then you do some serious soft tissues damage when you sprint back for your stump
Great video lad, super good info that i will be giving a go in my next run. I always think about cadence and how fast/slow I should be moving my feet and together with that stride length and this was the perfect video.
Keep them coming my dude! Happy 2021
Great Vid Dan. I’ve been using this tip the past couple of weeks and it’s certainly helped toward me finding my rhythm again. Simple focuses are the best. Big training block done for Hell of the west triathlon. Thanks for contributing to the enjoyment 👌🤘🏻
The raddest video on running stride/form ever. Also, that Spitfire T is on point! You did it again Dan. Cheers!
Thanks Alex
Dan jusst want to say welcome back I really miss watching your video's very informative and inspirational
Thanks for sharing Dan. Sometimes with all the running advice out there you just need someone to break it down to its simplest thing. 👍
Top advice. Never got around to filming myself but I use to over stride all the time. Happy new year to the family and Sarge.
Thanks mate. I think it helps a lot just to see what you are actually doing and then work it out from there. Happy new year
Super helpful, thanks! I’m currently trying to get healthy after years of over training and bad form. This is certainly something I’m going to work on.
this was the best advice from Scott Jurek book :-)
Thanks for sharing Dan!! Such a great reminder. Even for those of us who have been running for a long time, this is such an important thing to do. Maybe even more important because it’s easy to get into bad habits. Happy new year!
For sure mate happy new year to you as well all the best!
I am going to do this myself.., another great video post
Thanks mate
Awesome video, and very timely for me. I’ve been a sloppy heel striker and I’m trying to work on that, so I’ve actually been searching “running form” videos on TH-cam. This is definitely the best put together one I’ve watch. Always love your vids, Dan! Cheers!
Thanks mate hope it helps out
the light setting is very beautiful !! perfect video for the beginners :)
Thanks Alex
I love the shoelace asmr haha. This video was so informative and so relaxing to watch! Great tips
Thanks Chloe
Hi man I miss your TH-cam videos. I really enjoy it. Please keep it up. Thank you
Will do! thank you
I switched to Altras after watching your last video and the pain in my shins is down like 90%. Not totally gone but it made a massive difference.
Great to hear that. I had a shin issue myself and switching to altra completely got rid of it and haven’t had it since
Thanks, Dan! Just starting to run again after a knee injury and will try your technique 👍
Best of luck mate hope it helps
I hadn't run much over the last couple of months but hit the trails today. The first 2k was ok but then the lack of fitness hit me hard. But, by about 10k i had found my old groove, and despite there not being much fuel in the tank i found my legs were hitting the ground nicely and when i had to stop to catch my breath my legs just wanted to keep going (without my lungs).
When it all comes together running is a beautiful beast.
Beautifully made video Dan. Going to go and film my stride tomorrow (38 degrees in Melbs so not today!) thanks for making these.
Thank you haha yes I think it’s 36 here today good day to stay cool inside I think
Simple, useful, modest, great soundtrack, beautifully edited. If Dan was to make an instructional video, it was always going to be like this. Cheers mate 🤙
Thanks mate glad you liked it
Thank you :)
Dan your videos are incredible and inspiring. How do you come up with the ideas of what to make? Thank you for putting your work out to us 🙏
Very crafty, well made video Dan 🙌🏼🙌🏼. Injuries sucks but if we don’t learn, will keep doing the same thing over and over again. Once we learn to use gravity and foot strike the “perfect “ way We will also feel that effortlessly sensation. 💪🏼
For sure thanks Luis
Love the advice on using video to check your running form regularly. I wonder if there are coaches out there that you can submit a video of yourself running to so they can analyse your form. That’d be wicked! Thanks for the video. Simple and easy to maintain.
Thank you. I would say there is definitely people out there that can do that kind of thing but having never done it I cant recommend anyone sorry. Thanks for checking it out
Awesome.
Eh up Dan,Happy New Year Mate .just been out in the back garden trying it,looks like I have been running wrong for the past 10 years🤣 oh well start again .keep the videos rolling pal 😬
Haha nice one mate never too late to make some adjustments. Good to hear from ya
Oh my,just what I need. 2020 has been a year of injuries for me.As I fixed or recovered from one I got another one. Fist was a pain in right hip ,then my right ankle and finally a nerve like pinching on in my left foot!
After recovering from those, meantime facing weight gain issues, I had a difficulty breathing when physically exerting my breath. All the pains got away except for the breath issue. I hope is not Asthma,only some temporary shit!
Anyways,I hope you Dan are doing okay and staying Healthy mentally an physically. Always nice to see a video from you,cheers👊👊👊
Same with me when it comes to weight gain. It def doesn't help. Hope you get back into your groove and have injury-free 2021.
Thats a bummer! unfortunately thats often the way it goes one thing leads to another. For me I was very weak when I started running and I had a lot of different what Id describe as nerve pains. Id recover from one and then get another likely because I was compensating I think. With patience and time it will improve stick at it!
@@alchemymarius I hope that too brother,learning from my mistakes I want to think very good days are coming.
Weight gain is the real shit though, It messes with you head especially if you have an obesity background. For all these small injuries I had in 2020 greedy training decisions are to blame , greed for fear of my weight gain.
I hope you stay lean man,all the rest will fall to place! Take care👊👊
I liken over striding to slowing down when riding a skateboard, under your weight drives you forward and in front will apply the brakes! Great vid Dan, thanks.
Good way to think about it. thanks mate
Great video Dan - thanks for sharing. BTW The Olympus 4 that Altra replaced for free mid-October just blew out in one shoe. :( Good news they seem likely to replace them again AND the LonePeak 5 seem to be made of a tougher material in the upper and have more cush than the LP 4's.
Good to know mate just saw photos of the lp5 looks bloody sick!
Dan, so good to see another vid! Quality content, will try and film myself sometime. I highly recommend Shane Benzie for running form stuff. He has a great new book out and I know you like book!
Thanks Harry. A couple of people have recommended it so I’m going to check that out for sure. Thanks
Came for the title, stayed for the beautiful video
Brilliant Dan. I think it’s time for a check up on my part. Cheers from Norway.
Just been watching apetor till Dan dropped this masterpiece. Greeting from Lithuania. 🤙:D
Thanks david let me know how you get on
Falling forward bit is a good tip....when i went from roads to trails i watched a lot of the early youtube trail stuff of Anto Krupicka etc and found they had a very similar running form - shorter tap tap tap movements - that is how i run now :) but much slower :)
Glad it helped mate. I noticed the same thing when I got into trail running
Great vid Dan and great to see and hear you too. How's your health doing these days?
Thanks Pete, yeah not too bad mate I can’t complain I’m not back to where I was at in 2017/18 by any stretch but generally I’m pretty good now just often feel very fatigued for no reason but just gotta work through it.
@@DanWhitehead Good to hear that mate. Thanks for keeping these vids going, still love all of your content. (miss the cooking vlogs)
Great video, I’ve stayed relatively injury free and I think a lot of it is just swallowing your pride and giving up on a race/run if something feels off before you do serious damage
That is a very big part of it as well probably should have touched on that. I found that part of it for me at least could only be learned with experience!
hey bro what shoes are those. thanks for the video.
Beatiful color grading, what camera was this filmed with? :)
Run for Your Life by Mark Cucuzzella. An interesting book on the topic
Great video and thanks for sharing!
Hi Dan, hope that you and your family are all well. How are things? Have you managed to start and up the mileage a bit and get back into it? You look to be running easy mate. Hopefully we can all start and book onto some races soon and have some level of confidence they won't be cancelled. All the best Dan. Take care
Hey Tim, my mileage is pretty low still I dont remember the last time I ran over 10km but thats ok I am just having fun with and enjoying it thats the main thing for me at the moment. Im also mixing running with surfing when we have the weather for it and I think that wears me out more then running ever did haha. I have been thinking about races and training again lately though its still on my mind which means its something I still want to do. Hope your doing well mate.
Have no trouble running in a treadmill but when I run outside I always injure the front of the calves and I am out for days. Helpful video .thanks man .do you run slightly tilted forward or do u straighten your back after finding your correct footstrike?
I know I should pay a bit more attention to my form, especially when I see the outsole more worn out by the heel area in my shoes. Do you think that beside this, doing gait analysis would be good too? I considered in the past to get an assesment. So far the injuries have respected me, but I also should do a bit more of strength work and propioception, especially while hitting the trails.
Always appreciate you quality videos. Any plans to do some trail adventure/ race this year? I am sure you miss those time when in Europe preparing the CCC.
Stay safe, happy new year Dan!
I am not too sure mate I have never had it done so I cant comment but it could be a good starting point for sure. I miss those times indeed! happy new year to you too
I don’t give a rats ass about running but I love your videos. Beautifully crafted and refined with some much finesse in the details. Keep it up legend!
❤️
Some Awesome running reads:
What I think when I think about running by Haruki Murakami
The Essential Sheehan: A Lifetime of Running Wisdom by Dr. Sheehan
The incomplete book of running by Peter Sagal
Thanking you I shall check them out
Great video and I love the channel. The past 2 weeks I have tried to increase my cadence and shorten my stride. Since, increasing I have noticed a huge difference in how I feel after runs. Def a game changer!
Nice one mate glad to hear
such good adivse!!!
Happy new year! I got a book for Christmas called “ The art of running” by Shane Benzie it talks all about the and natural body motion, it’s a good read.
Nice one, thanks for sharing!
Thanks mare I had not heard of that so I will take a look
Do you mean "the lost art of running" ?
@@Urban0utlawGT yes sorry
@@paulsparkes5741 no need to apologise dude. Thanks for sharing! I'm also gonna buy and check out!
I run 50 mile Ultra trail races, and would call my self a back of the packer. I find my self with and extra 6-8 weeks of training that will not fall in to an actual training plan. Would I be better of spending this time on speed or climbing vert?
Hey mate, im not sure exactly what you mean but im thinking your saying your doing 6 to 8 weeks of training prior to starting a training plan ? you should be just doing base mileage in that time I wouldn't recommend any speed work or tempo running. Tempo running and hill reps should be incorporated into the training cycle when you start it. I work off 8 to 12 weeks training cycle leading up to a race and I find that plenty that includes tapering. Anything more then that im feeling tired at the start line. Honestly I think if your putting in the training consistently making improvement with ultra running just comes with time and experience every race you figure out what you can sustain, how to fuel, just what works for you. Everyone is different.
HIGHLY recommend if anyone wants to a more detailed explanation of this way of running, check out the book ‘chi running’ by Danny Drever
