Running

Running is similar to walking except there is a moment of suspension called the flight phase when both feet are simultaneously off the ground. The skill of running includes jogging, sprinting, dodging and evading. The ability to run is essential to perform a wide range of activities in both everyday life and sporting contexts. Whether it is sprinting in a race or running for pleasure, chasing a football or trying to catch a butterfly, it is essential that everyone develops a proficient running technique. The activities used are from the Move Well Move Often booklets.
