Natural running

Natural running is an approach that emphasizes mimicking how humans originally ran before modern footwear and surfaces altered our gait. It encourages a forefoot or midfoot strike, minimalistic footwear or barefoot running, and a relaxed, balanced posture to reduce impact and injury. The goal is to promote a more efficient, comfortable running style that aligns with our innate mechanics, emphasizing proper alignment and strength. By reconnecting with our natural movement patterns, runners often experience better form, reduced strain, and increased enjoyment of running.
