Everyone wants to run faster, but most runners never take the time to develop speed as a skill. We are here to tell you...
SPEED IS A SKILL...IT CAN BE TAUGHT....PRACTICED...AND DEVELOPED
Many runners and even coaches think doing countless intervals and track workouts are going to bring about massive improvements in speed. But if the movements are not sound, the fact is, you'll be wasting your effort.
-
What will we be working on?We will spend the majority of the clinic focusing on the development of the two key elements of speed, stride length and stride frequency. For more details, see full schedule below.

Who is this workshop for?
This workshop is for intermediate to advanced level runners looking to get faster. If you want to get faster and have never taken the time to develop speed as a skill, you have A TON to gain by applying these drills and progressions to your own training.
