*Run barefoot indoors or outside for 20 meters right before you start your run.

*March in place prior to your run with your ankles flexed, landing on the midfoot to help reinforce proper foot strike.

*Reset your posture throughout your run and also throughout the day.

*Practice one new skill at a time. Try cadence first. Don’t try to put all the new skills you’ve learned into practice all at once.

*Go to http://jogtunes.com to find music to set your cadence to.

*Listen to your footsteps and try to reduce the sound of contact with the ground. This will help you run “light.”

*Video yourself (maybe on a treadmill) or come back to class. Seeing yourself is the best way to learn.

*Do strength building exercises to help keep your feet and therefore your whole body healthy.
