ABOUT ME: I'm James Dunne, a runner, sports rehabilitation therapist (similar to physical therapist) and coach based in the UK (Norwich and London).

Since 2007 I've been working with athletes focusing specifically on helping distance runners and triathletes overcome injury and improve performance through developing their individual running technique.

Running biomechanics and physical therapy are real passions of mine. I love to help runners run strong and stay injury free.

    Thanks for this James, a fascinating deep dive. One thing I've noticed about my running for is over the last 3 years as I've become a better runner, my form has improved drastically. Some videos from around 4 years ago are almost unrecognisable with my arms swinging all over the place. I've consciously worked on my arm drive by looking at my reflection in the windows at my gym which i would equate most of this improved efficiency. I can maintain WR pace for about 3k but hopefully with some more training i can aim to keep up for at least 5k :)
  • I love watching people like Ben. So smooth, and he makes running look effortless!
  • @Snerunseasy
    Ben is a great athlete and I love his running style,so smooth.
  • @harryv6752
    Fantastic analysis and commentary. Thanks! Subscribed. 🤘
  • Was about to watch one of bens videos decided on this. Thought i pressed the wrong button😂. Great video. 💪
  • Great to understand the techniques of athletes. Thank you. Any tips or video that you recommend for keeping hip under us and get an angle like Ben getting in leading leg? I’m currently running 10-12 min miles. I just feel like my legs are a bit in front of me no matter how much I try to take shorter strides.
  • This is an excellent video - i saw a recent video of Ben running in some track races and thought he looked like he had an excellent running style. Do you guys offer a service to review running style like this? I am a masters runner, and once a sub 4 minute miler, but I've seen my style dramatically change over the years and I know it affects my running speed now (which is still fairly decent) and would love to improve it
  • @rzin2007
    James, how these parallel lines logic changes when you run uphill or even more downhill? i frequently feel that when i run downhill my front leg swings forward more but comes under my center of gravity when it hits the ground.
  • @Tikilamann
    awesome vid thank you verry much small advice, you need a better backround for this settup :D something simple with some lines for reference
  • Thanks both to @JamesDunne and @BenIsRunning for this video. Is the full video of Ben running at those paces available on YT? I can't find it...
  • @rabbitize
    what's this annotation tool that displays the angle
  • @MrSquigler
    But these are all quite "high" paces for a normal person. I'm relatively new to running, and I'm finding having a high cadence and a good form while jogging or running at slower pace to be much more difficult than what's displayed in this video
