FLOATRUN HARNESS:
Personal Running Technique Coach

The fastest & easiest way to make the basics of great running technique automatic and permanent!

  • Stop over-striding and improve cadence instantly
  • Much better speed improvement than super shoes
  • Makes running more fun!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Featured in this great article from Outside Magazine!

The FloatRun Harness is a coach that is with you every step of every run until beautiful form becomes muscle memory. 

The FloatRun Harness gives you proud, tall posture by placing you in proper “elbows back” arm position---which is the key to efficient, low impact running form, and contributes to:

  • Quick speed improvements (up to 30 seconds per mile)
  • Low Impact Landing Under a Bent Knee
  • Increased Cadence   

Simply put the big opening of the FloatRun harness on like a jacket (both straps behind your back---one above the shoulders and one below) & place thumbs in the loops under the armpits. Don't stretch the thumb loops while focusing on keeping the elbows back & moving the arms as little as necessary to learn to:

  • Avoid over-striding by not letting elbows forward of hips
  • Adopt proud, tall posture
  • Keep the wrists near the ribs for max efficiency
  • Minimize forward arm motion & energy wasting asymmetry

After 6+ weeks of using the FloatRun Harness, efficient running form with proud posture, high cadence, and low-impact landings will become second nature. It's like being a runner reborn! 

Research has shown that running technique improvement can reduce injuries by 62% & increasing cadence is very effective in reducing forces on the body.

To quickly adopt beautiful, Kenyan-style running technique, simply put on the harness and focus on: 

  1. Not stretching the thumb loops forward much, if any
  2. Popping the elbows back & don't let them come forward of the hips
  3. Moving your arms as little as necessary for the pace you're going
  4. RELAX (People tend to tense up when doing new movements)

That's it! Doing this will ensure great posture, and help you dial in your ideal foot-strike and cadence. More fun, less pain, and quicker times may shortly follow!

SIZING: Sizing roughly corresponds to unisex T-shirt size. However, a Medium Harness will fit like a Small when twisted to figure 8 configuration (see images). A Large will fit like a Medium when twisted as well.  If you wear a Large t-shirt and are closer to a medium than you are to an XL, get a Medium harness, unless you will use the Figure 8 Configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How often should I wear the FloatRun Harness?
A: It should be worn nearly every run for 6-12 weeks. The more it is worn, the sooner your improved technique will become second nature. After that, we suggest pulling the harness out once a month for a check up and tuneup.

Q: Do you offer bulk pricing for school groups, large running clubs, or coaching?
A: YES! Our mission is to improve running technique everywhere as quickly as possible. We will practically give these away for schools, youth groups, and other large training groups.

Q: How long will the FloatRun Harness Last?
A: A long time. The harness should last around a year if treated well, and could potentially last decades if treated right (kept clean and out of the sun and heat, etc.)
Q: How do I know if my FloatRun Harness fits correctly?
A: The harness should fit relaxed but snug around the shoulders without being too loose in the back or under the armpits. It should pull just enough to remind you to keep your shoulders back. Because it is very stretchy, it's hard to get the sizing wrong. If you bought a size closest to your unisex t-shirt size, it should fit well.

Q: What should it feel like?
A: That depends on the runner. However, generally speaking it may feel very different at first. It will remind your to keep your shoulders back and adopt proud, tall posture. Likely, your arms will be much further back and move much less than you are used to. This will all start to feel fairly normal within a few weeks.

Q: How do I know if I'm using the FloatRun Harness correctly?
A: It's pretty simple, follow the directions of how to put it on and run, while focusing on three things:
1) Don't stretch the thumb loops much, if any.
2) Keep your elbows back.
3) Move your arms as little as necessary for the pace you are going. Pump the elbows back to accelerate.

Great!

Vital tool for learning more efficient running form

Game Changer

I am a Police Officer, and I have torn my left calf twice in foot pursuits at work (no time to stretch). A coworker suggested I try the Running harness, and it has been a complete game changer! I can now run pain free, and my mile time has improved. I am sold on it and have recommended it to all my friends who run.

Has helped my running posture immensely!

I bought this harness a few months into starting running. I was already a zero drop/wide toe shoe fan, and learned to strike the ground right beneath my hips and push the ground away rather than a hard strike/heel brake. However, it was hard to both maintain this and I had some back pain starting during my runs.
This harness has helped open up my chest and lungs more, push my shoulders into a proper position, and helped me control my arms and use them more efficiently. When I take it off to finish my runs with a couple miles after running a few with it on, I feel absolutely amazing. I can maintain the open chest, relaxed and controlled arms, etc etc, but I can finally truly relax my shoulders and back and properly engage my butt and hips. Big fan! Very easy and cost effective way to work on your form and posture.
