About
This inspiring book answers your technical questions and dispels many misguided but widely accepted "rules" in the running world. It is the go-to manual for all runners-from beginners to experts-as well as for coaches and health professionals who want to learn how to treat running injuries quickly, effectively, and permanently. You'll gain a deep understanding of the physics of running, the effects of shoes and technique on your body, and the benefits of a simple approach to injury reduction and rehabilitation.
Keith Bateman is an expert at eliminating pain caused by poor running technique and significantly improving his clients' times. A full-time running technique coach, at age 55 he became the oldest person to run 10 km in under 32 minutes. He refined the art of running fast and almost effortlessly into a unique six-lesson plan to rebuild a runner's technique. In 2010, within nine months, Keith set five age-group world records (M55+) for all distances from 1,500 m to 10 km.
Heidi Jones (Dip.Pod., MA. Pod.A.) is a former state junior champion who ran 10 miles in 58:13 and 10 km in 33:40 at age 17. She is known in Sydney as a podiatrist who treats patients by strengthening their feet, removing orthotics and bulky shoes, and teaching proper running technique. Her exclusive strength and rehab program complements Keith's lessons, and together they rewrite the technical guide for both running and podiatry-and prove that it works!
"Older Yet Faster sets a new standard for the theory and practice of running technique for coaches and runners of all levels. This book has been of great help to me as a coach, as well as to countless athletes I train. With it, readers are sure to learn practical strategies for running fast and efficiently."
- Sean Williams, long-time coach of runners from Australian Olympians to beginners. Sean coached both Keith and Heidi for many years.
