    Comments and Definitions

    Kenyan Running - lean forward, roll off your big toes, keep hand above your waist, look about 6 feet in front of you with your eyes, drive your elbows back and never cross your midline with your hands.

    RUN
    • Time: 30m
    • Run on a flat course or treadmill. Keep HR in Zone 1-2, no higher than the top of Z2. Think about running like a Kenyan - smooth and efficient! Stretch when done and add in Core 1, 2 or 3.
