If you’ve ever raced or done a group track workout, you’ve seen them.  

Grown men and women in tiny shorts doing exaggerated skipping and hopping.  Swinging their legs back and forth.  And you’ve seen those runners that look like they are not going for a run, but practicing for a line dance, doing the grapevine back and forth.

Should you start swinging, skipping, and dancing, too?

Yes. 

A little jogging before your runs and races isn’t enough.

Those weird, silly rituals really do have specific benefits not only for the workout you’re about to do, but can impact your running fitness overall.

Welcome to the Planted Runner.  I’m Coach Claire Bartholic and my mission is to help you improve your running, your mindset, and your life with science-backed training and plant-based nutrition.

Today, I’ve invited Dr Eoin (pronounced Owen) Everard to get into the science of the warm up.

 You’ll learn:

  • What’s going on inside of our bodies as we warm up

  • What kinds of warm ups should be done for what runs and races, and

  • How a good warm up routine can enhance not only the run you are about to do, but your overall running fitness as well

Eoin is a physiotherapist with a PhD in Biomechanics. He’s also a sub-4 minute miler, a sub-14 minute 5k runner, and a five-time Irish National Champion in the 1500 and 3000m.  He is the founder of everardpilates.com  and has written a book called How To Get To The Line in the Best Shape Possible which you can get for free on his site.  

Eoin really is a wealth of knowledge both as a scientist and a competitive master’s runner.  So if you are looking to level up your running this conversation will have some really great ideas for you.

Don’t forget to stay tuned all the way to the end for another Mental Strength Minute.  Fortify your mind in 60 seconds or less.
