Want Achilles Tendinitis?! Just do this...

 

"...don't let your heel touch...don't let your heel touch..."

That's what I kept telling myself when I was first trying to change my running form.  This was when I was still a long-stride, heel strike runner, before I had a running coach, before I became a running coach and before I understood that the POSE Method of running is intended to focus on how you're pulling your foot OFF the ground instead of how your foot is LANDING on the ground. 

"...don't let your heel touch...don't let your heel touch..." is what I kept repeating to myself JUST before I was completely sidelined from running for 3 weeks because I developed Achilles Tendinitis!

There are simple ways you can work on changing your running form to create less impact and less potential for injury but focusing on how your foot is landing on the ground is NOT one of them!

Soft, springy ankles...that's the goal!
