Structure Triax

If you'd like to run like a gazelle, all you need is a whopping great big lion to chase you down the road. If you want motivation like that, then just start out at the front line of a big city race of tens of thousand runners. The gun goes off and every gazelle in the front line runs for their life as the herd chases them down. One stumble and fall and the next thing they will feel is the trampling of tens of thousands of dollars worth of expensive running shoes that triumph by running straight over their humiliated heads. Running like a gazelle involves running with that sort of fear.

The only motivation a gazelle knows is fear. His reason to run is simply to stay ahead of the competition (The one with the big teeth). If there is no competition then there is no fear and if there is no fear then there is no reason to run.

Does this sound like a desirable situation? Running with fear will definitely get your adrenalin pumping and will probably get you to the finish line but is it good for your performance? Fear makes us tense, fear makes us stressed and fear clouds our judgment. Our thinking moves from the controlled deliberate cerebral thinking to unconscious primitive limbic thinking. We are no longer able to control our bodies but they control us instead. Instead of being able to quietly calmly listen to our bodies they run on without us. Instead of being able to retain our form we lose it in a flail of arms and legs. Our heart races, our mind panics, we miss a drink station and our race plan falls to bits.

Running like a gazelle, seems like a natural way to run fast but it isn't the best way to optimize your performance. If you run in fear, you are ripping yourself off.

How much better to run like a self motivated animal. One who runs for his own benefit. One who is internally motivated and races just for the fun of it. If we are able to run for ourselves, simply for the benefits that we feel then we are running more like monkeys. We can blast through the forests, barely touching the ground, screaming with excitement as we really experience going fast under our own steam.

Running monkeys are the perfect example of the sort of running that I appreciate. Running ridiculously fast no matter what obstacle is in our way. Running fast no matter what the terrain. Running fast for nobody but ourselves. Running fast just because we can, enjoying every step of the way. Running seriously fast but not taking ourselves too serious. Running monkeys with a sense of humour.
