How to Run Downhill Faster & Pain Free

 

In today’s new video on our YouTube channel (check out more of our videos here), I’m joined by my good friend Luke Tyburski, the endurance adventurer.

We take a few minutes to discuss downhill running techniques, and the errors we often see runners make when running downhill. Such flaws in technique tend to place more stress on the knees in particular.

It’s certainly not uncommon for runners who come to me with knee pain to cite running downhill as being an aggravating factor for their symptoms.

Running downhill is largely a matter of confidence. As much as anything else, this confidence comes with practice!

Give the tips in the video a try on your next hilly run :)

Let me know how you get on in the comments…
