There were other notable performances from Mark and Betsan in the Twin Peaks run.

All their performances benefitted from and were a result of months of work with Vorsprung, working on improving their form.

Good form makes running, or any sports, so much easier and ultimately more pleasurable.

Why is better form in exercise so important?

• It decreases injury risks

• It increases performance

• It makes exercise more enjoyable, as it makes the ‘effort’ more efficient

• In reducing injuries, it reduces impact on the NHS resources

• It helps to reduce wear on equipment and apparel (like running shoes).

• As a consequence of reducing wear on apparel, it creates an ethical consumer, in as much as, it reduces the need to replace apparel and equipment too often due to people executing poor form.
