Whenever I run at larger events I always find it interesting to see the way other people run and how much it can vary from person to person. And whilst there are some traits that you might see more often in stronger or weaker runners, there are always people who surprise me by running faster or slower than their style suggested at first glance.

Can you describe your running style? What does it look like? Does it have any quirks or things that make it recognisable to others? Has it changed over time?

I think I run like roadrunner. Whether I’m moving fast or slow, I seem to turn over more steps than other people doing a similar pace, which always makes me think of the animation of roadrunner running with her legs spinning around in a blur.

I’m pretty light. I’ve been told i run gracefully, but I also over stride a bit so my form is definitely not perfect.
