b'The phrase \\u201cTaking it all in stride\\u201d means to get all you can get within a single step.\\xa0 As runners, we have a special appreciation for longer, stronger strides in that they ensure faster speeds on the open road, and combined with more frequent strides, can turn our back and middle of the pack efforts into something closer to the front.\\xa0 When we train, we are already prepared and pre-conditioned to expect speed work and strength work, long runs and the building on endurance: but within those efforts we also need to focus and dedicate ourselves to improving the quality of our natural strides\\u2026because it is in doing so that we improve our efficiency and speed in races and on the road.\\nShow Links:Fdip Blog of the Week: \\xa0 Featured PodCast: Dirt Dawgs Rambling Diatribe Podcast\\u201cHighway Run\\u201d by Charlie Wheeler Band'
