      It's interesting you say this. At one point I also tried a higher knee lift and yes, I did find that my times improved. But on a tempo or race-pace effort, I found it required more energy and over a long run, the final kilometers were a hard effort (regardless of how fit I was). So, I went to back to a 'minimalist' stride/technique with a lower arm swing and a higher cadence. Instantly, my times improved. My thoughts were, if it worked for a champion distance runner like Rob de Castella, then it's good enough for me. Since implementing this technique, along with introducing a bulk of easy runs into my training, my distance PBs have fallen many times.

      The main difference between advice vs advise is that “advise” (with an S) is a verb, which means to recommend, or to give information to someone. On the other hand, “advice” (with a C) is a noun: an opinion or recommendation offered as a guide to action.

    I was obese 5 months ago. I start running 3.3km at 11:00 /km with a HR of 158. Since then, I have been doing a slow run and increase from 3.3km to 5km over time. After 4 months of building my aerobic base, I manage to run 5km at 8:30/km with a HR of 155. Then, I start to include interval and threshold run in my weekly running plan. Now I could run 5km at 7:48/km with a HR of 155. I'm still overweight btw so I probably need to control my diet since I just eat normally beside avoiding drinking sugary water. My goal is to run at least sub 6:00/km. Then probably aim for half marathon.
    Update 1: I manage to decrease my weight from around 88kg to 82.2kg (bmi: 27.5) after 2 months. I got new PR on 5k 3 days ago. Finish it in 33m 08s (6:37 /km) with avg HR 157-163. Lifting my knee a little higher definitely help improving my time.
    Update 2 as 23rd Feb 2024: So I manage to gain more weight (around 87kg, gonna blame on new job huhu) but I beat my personal 5k. Finish it in 31 min (6:18/km)

      You still have great potential, if you do nothing more than lose surplus body fat you will improve your times further. Depending on where you lose fat from you will save more or less time but just 2 lbs surplus fat loss would likely shave 12 seconds off a 5K time

      Very effective presentation of a lot of information condensed into a short time. I've struggled with running injuries for years, with sore knees, shin splints, ACL injuries - if it's not one injury, it's another. Then twisted my ankle and couldn't run for nearly a year. I started slow, and it was such a joy I was very careful not to overdo it, and even easy jogging brought me back into shape pretty quickly. Now I alternate days of running (about 4 miles with hills) with HIIT days, and days when I go to a rock climbing gym, and do that for an hour plus 30 minutes on a stationary bike. I wish I could incorporate swimming but you can't have everything. For me, a mix of different exercises works best. HIIT is a must.

    Key to running faster is consistency which means avoiding injury. Get your form checked out before introducing speed and hills. Identify any imbalances/weaknesses and strengthen those areas. A weak left glute caused my hamstring injury.

    Some excellent stuff in there. Back in the day (1984 to 1994) I did a lot of running, including 15 marathons (never broke 3hrs though) and just loved running.
    The three things I found limited my endurance and/or pace were - Heart, Lungs and Muscles. When all three were in tune I was in heaven.
    Should add mental attitude- "I really am as good as that guy in the blue shirt". And also the checklist "What can I smell, what can I see, what can I hear, what do I feel. Relax, Relax, Relax."
    But the strangest thing was if I ran after a heated "discussion" with my wife, I'd replay the argument while I was out, and amazingly my superior logic would iron out all the wrinkles in her thinking. Result - I'd come back home much more settled, and enjoy a happy long-lasting marriage (51 years and counting).

On my long run this morning (20km, longest run ever) I went out purposely slow but in the last 5km as my legs were fatigued I was picking up the cadence to make the effort easier as such I ended up doing the last few k’s about 15-20 sec a km faster.

    I 100% agree with this. In my earlier years I stubbornly refused this advice, preferring the 'go hard every run' method. Finally though, I gave into the advice because my PBs had levelled out but I knew I could go faster/run better times. So I went from 0% easy running, to over 60% easy running (and now even more since then) and the results were noticeable even within a few weeks. And what I liked about it the most is, I found running enjoyable again (it gets tough after a while trying to smash out fast runs every day). Further to that, I bought myself a good treadmill and so now I know for sure that I'm holding a consistent pace on my easy runs and no chance of seeing an accidental spike in pace. I also love the treadmill for doing progressive runs, again for the pace consistency.
    As for the results, I went from never coming in under 90min for a half-marathon, to now being able to do this with relative confidence ... not relative ease (because it's still a very tough effort) ... but knowing that if I stick to easy runs and a balanced training regime, I know it's within me to achieve it.

    Now I can say. I lost more aerobic capacity during 8 weeks with 100% LIT than in the 4 weeks of no-running before.
    Towards the end of that 8 week LIT phase I ran slower paces at higher heart beat rates than in the first half of these 8 weeks.

    Good sound advice.I did notice where the lady was running her arm movement seemed to be over exaggerated.
    Iv'e done a lot of coaching in the past this seems to be a problem more in women .
    A simple thing I suggeste is to drop your arms relax your shoulders put your thumbs on the inside of your shorts at hip level
    pull out sideways against the shorts then let go your arms will drop into the correct position with no tenshion, try to hold that position as you run gently swinging your arms in a relaxed manner.
    I know its hard to adjust when you have ran in a certain way but tension in the shoulders dosn't
    help.Im not trying to be cleaver but we all have our own ideas so it's upto the individual.
    Still your advice seems pretty good.

    I started parkrun in Feb 18 and I can do it in 28-30mins. I've only just learnt about optimizing the aerobic heart rate to maximise fat burning so I've decided to focus on this rather than trying to run faster.

    Heart rate can be higher at a slower pace if the temperature is high. Heart rate training is only really any good in cool conditions if pace is your main aim. If it`s hot you`ll have to slow down to reach the same heart rate zone but doesn`t mean you`ve lost fitness same as if it`s cool and suddenly you are 20 seconds per mile faster at a particular heart rate zone you haven`t gained fitness your body just works better when its cool , marathons are run early or late in the year for that reason its cool and makes running fast easy. The best way to use heart rate to know if you`ve gained fitness is just check the resting HR every couple of weeks if its getting lower you are getting fitter, so on any particular hot or cool day you will be able to sustain a higher pace in a particular zone.

    I started 6 month ago to build my aerobic system. I slowly built up to 50/60 min at 7:30 below 150 bmp. Now, after 6 months I lost 24 weeks, since I still run 60 min at 7:30 min/km below 150 bpm

    thanks a lot. im trying to get my 5k time down and have been trying to go at the pace I want for longer bursts but can only go at that pace for about half a mile at a time then I need to walk for about 20 seconds to let my body catch up. I'm guessing its because I need to work on my aerobic system. its pretty much exactly how you said, at about 90 seconds in I can feel it start getting harder, and I can manage to push through and keep the pace until about 180 seconds then I have to take a break.

    The biggest difference I'm starting to notice is that on the slight uphill sections that I have to do my heart rate's been getting a lot better lately with the same pace. I haven't tried upping the pace yet but going from 160avg to 140 avg HR is still above most expert runners average I follow on Strava

    Just overal Strenght is a key factor aswell. 2019-2021 I was running 4 times a week. Getting my first 5K at 25:02. Pushing it more and more got me 23:20. Somehow this felt like a boundry I was unable to cross after multiple attempts, I lost motivation and stopped running entirely. September of 2022 I started Bootcamping 3 times a week (hardly any running involved). Now 1 Year later I bought new running shoes. Put the naughty shoes on and tried a 5K after almost 2 years of not really running and instantly broke my PR although beeing it with a 23:15 just 5 seconds faster. Just proving how general strenght of your muscles can improve your running.
    Suddenly I'm more motivated then ever to break the 22:30 barrier at 4:30/km Pace and going to attend my first ever real race. Might just think of going for sub 20 someday :D

      That's the same for a lot of people, including me. Fortunately, running isn't the only sport I like, so I tend to keep my running workouts faster and do my base building with cycling for example. Probably not the way to become the fastest runner ever, but it's a lot better than forcing yourself to run a lot of not very enjoyable (at least for me) slow runs.

      Worked really well for me last year (and will probably work this year). Build up the base, and then I can feed in more running volume as the fitness progresses and I can do it at a pace that feels good.

    I am incresingly convinced that the real engine of running is the degree to which the runner can let gravity give weight on his backward flexed tigh (of the supporting foot), without crisping in the hip. The efficient backward flexion in the relaxed open hip is the critical point in which all amateur runners are limited. The couch stretch exercise and how to balance the whole body weight straightly vertically over the knee, which moves subsequently even backward, is largely underrepresented in all running gymnastics! Runners of your body type (and mine ;-) ) have enough strong legs, but the mechanic is highly inefficient (much more muscle work than necessary. This is a neurosensory selectivity and relaxation problem, rather than a lack of action.
