I remember hearing the report that static stretching was no longer a preferred warm-up in 2013, and the first time I tried it, with no change in effort, my six mile easy run was about two minutes faster than usual. I've never looked back.

Very helpful as I've always been used to static streching,many thanks Coach Parry

I learned this the hard way; used to have all kinds of problems like sore hips and hamstrings and arches and runners knee but not since I started doing leg swings and a few squats instead of the traditional static stretches that somehow everyone seemed to think was the right thing to do. For warm down I just leave time at the end for a 1km brisk walk. Didn't know about some of these though and will definitely try them thanks.

The content on this channel is amazing. You clearly have a wide aperture lens but it's back focusing like crazy hunting all the time. As a suggestion limit the focus area on your camera or straight up go to manual and stay at the same plane as you film, closing a bit the aperture will also help if you need a larger focal plane to be able to move a bit in/out of camera.
