“The Guide says there is an art to flying", said Ford, "or rather a knack.
The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.”
Douglas Adams - Life the Universe and Everything.
Running can be regarded as continuously falling without actually reaching the ground. The only thing stopping runners from going splat, is that they keep on pulling alternate feet from behind them and dropping them to the ground, just in time to prevent it.
A runner with good technique has each foot in contact with the ground for say one tenth of a second at a time, running at a cadence of say 185 strides per minute means that they would only be in contact with the ground for 18.5 seconds out of of every minute. Now what is happening for the other 41.5 seconds? Both feet off the ground travelling forwards, does that mean they are fl... nooo it can't be.
“The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be.”
Douglas Adams - The Salmon of Doubt
Yes I know people can't fly, (at least not without some mechanical assistance). Millions of years of evolution have made birds able to fly and humans... well, run actually. Can you explain it any other way? For the major part of the last two million years us humans have learnt to run, either to catch something to eat or to avoid being eaten. We must have been good at it or we would not be here now. Millions of years during which we hardly gave gravity a thought, didn't need to. Running it's so natural, you don't have to know anything, unlike flying which requires a lot of know-how. So what has gravity got to do with running anyway?
Erm.... everything actually. No gravity = no running, simples! When was the last time you saw an astronaut in outer space run? If you really want to learn how to run, you have to learn some basic physics. For example; place a ball on a slope, it runs down, right? Put it on a steeper slope, it runs down faster, right? Well that is exactly how much effort running takes, you move forwards for exactly the same reason as the ball. Did the ball have to try?
No it was falling!You can learn to use gravity efficiently with the POSE Method. Why run like an elephant, when you can run with the grace and elegance of a gazelle?
