How to Increase Your Stride Length (and Run Faster) without Overstriding
How to increase your stride length without overstriding.
When it comes to proper running form, it's important to prevent yourself from overstriding by landing your foot beneath a flexing knee, close to beneath your centre of mass.
By not overstriding, you'll find it easier to run faster and more efficiently!

Despite the importance of not overstriding, you WILL need to increase your stride length (distance covered with each stride) if you want to RUN FASTER!
In this short video, I'll explain how that works!

Put simply, running faster is simply a case of increasing a combination of both your stride length and your running cadence (number of strides per minute).

In terms of increasing your stride length, there are TWO strategies your body can use to cover more ground... one will result in an efficient running form, the other will end up with you overstriding and slamming the brakes on with each stride!
GOOD RUNNING FORM:
To run faster, your increased stride length should come from you picking your feet up a little higher during the swing phase of your running gait (increased knee flexion) and driving your knee up and forwards more (increased hip flexion).
This combined hip and knee movement will result in you covering more ground during flight phase of running gait.
It will also set you up to land your foot beneath a flexing knee at initial contact (rather than overstriding).
BAD RUNNING FORM:
In comparison, runners who try to run faster with poor running form often neglect to pick their feet up high enough and run without sufficient "knee drive" (hip flexion) for the given running speed.
With this low carriage of the foot, the only way they can cover enough distance with each stride to maintain the pace, is to reach forwards with the lower leg (extending the knee) excessively during late-swing phase of their running gait.
This sets their foot up to strike the ground too far ahead of the rest of their body... thus overstriding.
Think about the simple running technique tips in this video next time you go out for a tempo run or other type of speed session. I'm sure it will help you to increase your stride length, run faster and avoid overstriding.
Good luck!
