Since I do a lot of stroller running, I have been concerned how that has affected my running form. I was more than excited when I joined the Lumo Run team and got the opportunity to use their run sensor. I really enjoy the coaching the app provides during your run. A friendly Australian woman comes on and tells you what to work on during your run. When you're hitting your goals, she'll chime in with "You're doing great" and "Remember how you feel right now". She also reminds me to focus on my posture. I tend to slouch when I'm getting tired and she'll give me a little reminder in my ear, "focus on your posture. Roll your shoulders back." I did get one comment while I was on the treadmill that confused me a little. She told me "remember to move like a horse". Do I need to gallop? Either way, I'm really enjoying this tool and feel like it's helping me to focus on my form which will help me a lot while marathon training. Here are my stats with a stroller run and a solo run. I wasn't surprised that rotation is something I didn't surpass with the stroller as I have to turn my body a lot when I switch which hand I push with. Clearing breaking is something I need to work on in both areas. I love that the app gives you goal specific exercises to do to work on the areas you need help with. As I continue training, I'll post updates on my progress to improve my form. Also, if you're interested in getting one of these bad boys yourself, I've got a discount code to share which is NL10. Happy running!!
