102. Lauren Klein | How and why you should think about improving your running economy

Laurein Klein is a trail and ultra runner with an undergraduate degree in athletic training, a master degree in exercise science and experience in the sports medicine field.

In this episode we talk about how biomechanics influences running economy and how we can improve our running economy through training to become better and more efficient runners.

As trail runners we are constantly striving to be better, run further, add more elevation gain, and cover more technical terrain. Besides our training and the workouts we're doing, it is also important to pay attention to how our body is moving while we run.
Any changes that allow us to use less energy while running allow us to improve our pace without increasing the amount of stress placed on our body.
