For the last few years, Iβve hovered around 8:00/mi, but struggled with injuries. Made the decision to ignore time and try to correct my form. Im using the Garmin cadence, vertical oscillation and ground contact time metrics as north stars. Also shifting to landing mid foot. Winning for me is injury-free running.

It is similar to what i've learned in martial arts training: slow is smooth, smooth is fast. Also I've vastly corrected my form (esp landing) when I switched to barefoot shoe (I use Atreyu) - little to no room for bad form (your feet will hurt!).

I can save you a lot of time and injuries. Most injuries are overuse injuries. It takes years to be able to run fast and run "long" . Your body adapts and protects. Changing form often hurts more than it helps. A great coach will do more for keeping you injury free than any shoe or form IMO

also shoes are very important. you need a test to check if you are neutral, pronator or supinator, then adapt the shoes to your feet

how are you going about correcting form? are you doing drills and hill sprints? those are the only things iβve heard of to help, but obv arenβt appropriate for the 80% of easy volume

Thinking about how your foot lands is super important! Do you stretch after all your runs?! Even some weight lifting may help with injuries!
