This was a great and informative video. One thing that sprinters and distace runners have in common is knee lift endurance. The ability to maintain the speed at any distance is the ability to maintain the ideal height. You see this after 80m in the 100m race when it looks like winner gets faster but really everyone else is slowly down. You see this in the marathon when people go out to fast and end up shuffling towards the end because of muscular fatigue.
This is really fascinating, how would the strides of 400m and 800m runners compare? Do they use a mix of these two styles? Or do 400m use sprint technique, and 800m use distance technique.
@@Conor42 It’s really fascinating because it shifts with energy systems. The 400m will usually have a mix of both because its right there between aerobic and anaerobic capacity. Where 800m running looks a lot more like 10,000m than 100m due to a higher aerobic demand.
Now if there's something I've been trying to improve my goal is to break a sub 15:00 5k, yet the concept of knee drive is still a concept I have not understood
It’s a motor control thing. It means the primary movement when you more your legs forward should start from the knee. A mental frame that helped for me, was imagining I had to do a knee kick like in Tekken 😊

Shorter ground contact times does NOT make you run faster! Running faster leads to shorter contact times! That's different. It's cause vs effect. The cause are higher forces the effect is more speed and less GCT.
