MOVEMENT

'Use it or lose it' is an apt phrase when it comes to your ability to move with ease & efficiency. Unfortunately, in today's modern technological society, we outsource many of our natural movement behaviours (think cars, lifts, chairs, electric-powered kitchen, cleaning & gardening tools etc) leaving our bodies movement malnourished!

 

Good levels of movement quality, across a range of diverse movements and underpinned by good levels of mobility & stability, can massively improve your running performance & longevity, especially important when you consider the relatively high injury rate commonly reported amongst runners (for example, more than 70% of runners will suffer from at least one moderate to serious injury every year). I get it - runners like to run and finding time to do other 'movements' can be difficult, particularly if you have a family, demanding job, social life and other responsibilities.

My aim with this section is to share with you the thoughts & ideas of a variety of movement 'experts' which I try to incorporate into my daily life, whether that be within warm-ups/cool-downs, active recovery sessions or simply when I get the chance throughout the day! This will include videos, podcasts and articles that I have found particularly useful, and i will continue to build this resource library over the coming weeks and months ...

 

Please feel free to contact me if you have any specific questions or suggestions for movement topics to cover.

Have you enjoyed these resources and found them useful? Please give back what you can by donating to my fundraising appeal for The Brathay Trust

I'm an average runner taking on an extreme challenge!

 

But why?

 

There are many reasons, not least to help raise funds for the amazing Brathay Trust.

More than this, however, it is also the opportunity to challenge myself, physically and mentally; to prove (to myself and others) that the we are capable of far more than most people imagine possible; and to put to the test my knowledge and application of movement, training and regeneration strategies in preparation for this epic challenge.

Through this blog I aim to share my highs and lows, my mistakes and breakthroughs, my learning and experiences as a reflective tool for myself and to help others on their own running, movement or health & fitness journeys.

Enjoy the blog, donate to Brathay if you can and please feel free to get in touch if you have any questions or comments.

Thanks

Richard
