I'm curious if Emily Sisson has seen this video. She has been having side stitch issues and the tension could be contributing to that?

Muchas gracias! Trataré de hacerlo esta semana

Only video that explains how yo fix the running postures..thank uou

Right on! I was "corrected" by a fast friend to keep my hands down while running which got me into perpetual knee injuries.

My calves aren't just tight, they are as rock hard as a granite boulder! I have done so much walking since I was 19, (ped mobile, dontcha know -- how I got from point A to point B and C amd ......Yeah. Then there is the hours and hours and hours I put in solely for health purposes and there EYE have it : Granite boulders for calves. And lately, they are SO hard, that it is just THIS side of painful. Plus, the OUTSIDE of my right calf starts cramping and being quite painful -- it was so bad 4 days ago, I thought I was gonna hafta call my husband to come from work to pick me up and get me home. The kicker? I was walking in the little plaza that abuts my back yard. (A fence does separate the properties, Thank God! I drink WAY more electorlyte waters than I probably need to. I TRY to suck down at least 32 oz. of water as well. Every day. Not got that down to a 100% yet, but working on it. I want to eventually do day rucking and light town trekking and .... after this past Thurs., Fri. and Saturday, plus Sunday; although I didn't walk that day, I was so, messed up, that I just sat it out and tried to use motion and sitting to work my hip out --- chock full of arthritis you see -- all of that said, to say that I am gravely concerned that I might have to give up my beloved walking. I AM stubborn cuss though, so..........having given up walking for more than 3 years to see if 'time would heal all' and realizing that it didn't ...........I started back in with my health walks.Nocturnal cramping, day cramping and not just the legs! Sometimes different sections of my abs cramp up and I swear those cramps travel around my midsection! Upper arms, forearms, aaaacchh! Thus, I have started hunting the 'tubes' looking for vids like this one, in desparate hopes that they will help me get a handle on my sitch. I apologize for the mini novella, but, I just needed to type this one out.Blessings a hundredfold to all.

It would be an interesting analysis if you could do an earlier comparison in the first 5k (fresh form) and compare it with the 25th mile fatigued form.

I have been deliberately holding my core recently whilst walking and light jogging, I caused my runners knee by incorrectly squatting 20x reps without weight, do you think I should relax whilst walking and not walk with core muscles over activated? and work on the core in the gym or at home less harshly in alignment with my natural body posture?

I have runners knees in both knees. I also had a bakers cyst in my left knee. I can't bend over or do squats it hurts or aches. Could I have osteoarosteoarthritis? I have had them massaged and stretched. I'm sprinter..

I am not a runner. I previously had sepsis and ever since my legs have been weak. I currently walk with the assistance of a cane. One day I tripped over a weed growing in my driveway. I stepped back and instead of falling, I hyperextended my right knee. I went to my doctor, and she said the injury is similar to runner's knee. (Feels like its just behind the kneecap). She gave me a few printouts of exercises to do but unfortunately, because of my age and physical limitations, I cannot do anything that requires me to get on the floor. Walking is fine. I get tired real fast and it's the getting up out of a chair that is the painful part. I am currently on limited teleworking with my job but have to go into the office once a week which is torture on the knee. Any exercises you can recommend like band stretches would be most greatly appreciated.

I thought I had runner's knee, but my pain started behind the knee, now it's moved towards the front. I have no idea what it is.

He beat king Kenenisa because is 14 years younger.. not because of Bekele's running form which has always been amazing! A high leg recovery is his signature and he won everything , and broke so many records.. including the world marathon master(in London!)...come on with all due respect... I cannot agree with your analysis...

Great argumentation! thanks for sharing your knowledge :)

Strange I have it on the foot which has more ankle mobility/ range of motion. My foot with less ankle mobility due to ligament tear some years ago is perfectly fine… I’ll try freeing the upper body though

That’s not where the heart is. You mean the sternum.

6:20 I think you are missing the point here. Your analysis is too focused on one plane, an error most people make. If you look back at the spinal engine theory (Serge Gracovetsky), the use of the lats are required for the functional lines (Anatomy Trains) to generate power and maximise economy as rotations are more efficient than swings (change of direction). Which means, shoulders must rotate backwards while we run, like a backstroke swimmer. Yes, even though we are running forward. The overwhelming majority of people get this wrong and erroneous running form tips about arm swing are being perpetuated. Kimptum is the only one I’ve seen who has been implementing this right at a professional level. Background: I’m an engineer who runs and spent a couple of years studying running gait.

Thank you Jae 🙏

A demonstration would have been helpful ;)

You’re discussing the great runner in human history..ant criticism of form is pointless

Yes I would say his age made the difference.

I'm not getting the audio.

Hellen Obiri started off as a sprinter... She's one of the most hard working athletes out there.

Here's the footage I have of the first 13 women to pass the 21 mile mark in the 2024 London marathon. No analysis from me in this video, just high-quality slow motion footage. My comments on their form are here: www.balancedrunner.com/london-marathon-2024-bekele-munyao-jepchirchir-assefa-running-form-analysis/. What do you see in their form?

Women always seem to me to have better running form.

Very good analysis. If you see his running form of some 10-15 years ago, which was absolutely superb, the difference is quite clear. Perhaps a result of an old injury, or some wrong approach in strength training. I don't believe it is his age.

Superbe attaque talon de Munyao

Amazingly, we are in an era when whites want to know how to run like black people. One thing I know is genetical of black races our legs are built differently because our ancestors were hunther gathered the size of our calves' muscle is different from you guys it natural work of GOD

Thanks for watching! Wondering who I am and how I'm qualified to do this analysis? Read this: www.balancedrunner.com/jae-gruenkes-elite-running-form-analyses-what-you-need-to-know/

You comparing Bekele and Alexander…🤔 Bekele age over 40 and Alexander only 27 years old …. Come on… ! Bekele is better than the one you mentioned.

This has to be the worst analysis I have ever seen. Bekele runsy like that. The only problem was his lower back pain of which he said he decided not to increase the pace.

I believe Bekele could have been better if he improve his PSOAS and core muscle strength. So that he could achieve a less "curve" back to relieve his back issue. I believe he did not run like these in the beginning. It was a sign of fatigue.

Have you ever compared a 2:05 elite to a good club runner between 2:45 and 3 hours to see how different their running styles are? And even runners of old that were elite that ran quick times with an odd running style. Example Paula Radcliffe?

Great analysis i thoroughly enjoyed it as a runner with form issues as well as huge Bekele fan. I thought i was dreaming when i read he came in second😂. Rarely do we have anyone breaking down a runner's form so thoroughly 👏

Bekele is shorter, giving his almost 100%, thus his form. Munyao knows he can outrun outsprint Bekele, that’s why he’s pulling back, thus his form.

Age. Age. Age. Height height height.

Would I have your permission to use some parts of your video to make a motivational video of Bekele and upload it to my UA-cam channel? I would be very excited since the footage and the slow motion video is insane and for a motivational video it could be great. Whatever the answer, thank you for this wonderful video🙏🏾

Incredible video, i enjoy it a lot🙌🏾🔥🤩

Too many factors go into all of this to make any real conclusions.

After 20 miles all you see is heart, there's nothing technical going on. It's got nothing to do with gait. Those that attended to balance got left behind "Manyao was able to correct for issues that would normally slow a runner down". That's all you need to know. Don't let anybody tell you what's normal. There's always another way

I love and always watch your videos, but I don't understand what you're saying about Bekele this time. His back was tightening up and it affected how he carried his chest and head. You seem to be saying that the way he carried his chest and head caused his back to tighten up, but isn't that putting the cart before the horse?

Excellent!

I think Bekele's more dynamic return leg comes from his track background. He's by far the quicker runner of the two with world-records as short as 2000m. As good as he still is he's now 41-years-old, and five years on from his fastest marathon, and over that period he has struggled with a number of injuries, including as you mention, back problems. I'd guess that having to use his back if he runs out of hip extension with the rocker on the new shoe might make that worse.

Very interesting. Going to think about what's happening in pelvic country. I do get knee pain on one side, though I think that leg is shorter too.

This is rad - thanks for all you do and who you are!

Would you say the head position is causing or enhancing the back tightness or the back tightness is causing the head position? Wondering because I have a young 19 year old runner who gets tight lower back and I notice he has a similar head position. Work on back or on head position?

I've always been fascinated how the "heel kick" of even elite athletes can vary so greatly, from Bekele's very high heel kick to someone like Albert Korir, who in profile looks like an old man shuffling along (at 2:07 marathon pace!) What I'd never thought to consider is what Jae points out here: how Munyao's ankle doesn't seem to plantar flex at any point during his stride while the bottom of Bekele's shoes, in contrast, appear to face straight upwards when he begins his forward leg swing.

Fascinating analysis, as ever.

Picking on the swing leg is a bit odd, because Bekele has always been running with a high heel kick

Interesting analysis. What I always notice is how effortless the running looks or not. In this case Bekele's running looks much less effortless than Munyao's. He's not kicking up his back leg so much, it looks much more like a jog than full speed marathon pace. Still he has that pace.
