The first rule a runner has to learn is that there is a technique to running.
\nWe understand this when we are comfortably sitting in front of the TV to enjoy a spectacular track and field race, and admire Bolt\u2019s formidable feats. We watch as the athletes sprint away from the starting blocks, impressing the speed of a car onto their body: the torso is forward, the knees lift and the feet almost bounce off the track, resting on the toes. Not even the time for the heel to go down and the foot is already in the air again. Arms at right angles that push, hands that reach in front of the face, one body that stretches towards the finishing line.<\/p>\n

We turn off the TV, slip on our running shoes and go for a run in the park. We start off slowly, paying little attention to the stopwatch. The feet rest lightly on the tarmac, the arms are blocked and remain folded at the sides, the head sways as we listen to music.<\/p>\n

What makes us like Bolt at that moment? We are running.. but it\u2019s like we are doing a totally different sport.<\/p>\n

The truth is that each time we start our run, we have to think of Bolt and try to learn from his movements. While we cannot be as fast and strong as him, we can still try to improve our running.<\/p>\n
