Christian's top tips on improving your speed
- Work on Technique – A lot of people think it’s just about running as fast as you can and don’t concentrate on technique. Maintaining good technique is important in order to increase your speed.
- Keep your eyes on the finish line – When racing focus on the finish and that’s it. Don’t look around and worry about the athlete’s around you.
- Concentration and hard work – Always be focussed when training and racing and put in the hard work! If you don’t work hard you will not see the rewards!
- Preparation – It is crucial to prepare yourself for a race. Make sure you have warmed up and stretched well and focus on the task in hand.
