Running Technique Videos/Resources

Question
Hello John,

I would like to teach my eight year old daughter proper running form for general purposes and also to improve her running speed for soccer.  I'm no expert and would like to find a good video that we can watch together to learn what good running form looks like and how we should go about developing good mechanics.  Any suggestions?  Thank you very much for your time and assistance.  Brian

I would be very carefull and work very slowly with lots of recovery between any sessions to avoid any overuse injuries.At her age she has a long way to develop.It is also imperative that she has fun and enjoys the process.I counsel all my athletes on this topic,which is the real key to a successfull running career.

The very best to
you and your up
