2026 Running Form Series

Run fast, healthy, and strong this spring!

With Coach Andrew Simmons
Head Running Coach, Peak Performance Running & Running Specialist at Golden Sports Performance

Sundays | 12:30-2PM
15 Spots available per clinic
March 8 • March 29 • April 12 • May 3rd
Golden Sports Performance - Golden, CO

Designed specifically for high school track & field athletes who want to:

  • Stay healthy during the season

  • Improve running efficiency

  • Build resilient mechanics

  • Reduce knee, shin, hip, and back pain

Each clinic focuses on posture, positions, and mechanics - the foundation behind the most common HS track injuries.

Athletes can attend any individual clinic. Each clinic will be focused on improving athletes form and mechanics with a small pivot towards specific problem areas in HS Track and Field Runners.

All Classes - Sundays | 12:30-2PM

What we’ll cover:

  • How over-striding increases stress on the knee and shin

  • What actually matters about foot strike

  • How cadence influences injury risk

  • Drills that reinforce strong positions under fatigue

Athletes will leave with:

  • A pre-practice posture reset routine

  • Clear mechanical cues to look for in your own running

  • A simple strength circuit to support strong hips

Track intensity increases quickly in-season. Without proper mechanics and lower leg strength, shin pain follows.

In this clinic, I will cover:

  • How to reduce tibial stress through improved mechanics

  • Building ankle stiffness without overloading

  • Calf strength and foot control for track surfaces

  • Warm-up sequencing for lower leg durability

  • Early warning signs athletes should never ignore

Athletes will leave with:

  • A lower leg strength training protocol (4-5 key movements)

  • Details on how to self-massage and work on lower legs

In my experience coaching high school athletes, knee pain is rarely a knee problem. It’s almost always a hip control issue which can show up as IT Band Syndrome and Runner’s Knee.

This session focuses on:

  • Establishing single-leg stability

  • Maintaining proper knee tracking in your running

  • Reducing IT band strain through better hip mechanics

  • Glute strength that actually transfers to running

  • Landing and pushing off without collapsing inward

Athletes will leave with:

  • A 10-minute hip and lower-leg warm-up routine

  • Single-leg strength progressions to add to their current routine

  • Clear cues to reduce knee irritation during speed work

Low back pain in track athletes often comes from losing posture when fatigued.

This clinic will focus on:

  • Pelvic positioning for sprinting and distance events

  • Core engagement that supports movement

  • How mechanics break down late in races

  • Torso and Upper Body Mechanics

  • Strength work that protects the lumbar spine

Athletes will leave with:

  • A three-phase core routine

  • Posture cues for the final lap

  • An Overview of Skills and Drills from the 3 prior sessions

Running and Racing can feel good!

Our goal is to help you run Pain Free!

  • Working on my form with Andrew has helped me dramatically improve my times in track. Andrew discovered some asymmetries in my gait that we fixed and helped my running feel more comfortable.

  • Even as a total beginner, I was able to make changes in my form that I still use as cues on my runs. Andrew guided me on some strength movements that helped take away my posterior tibialis pain.

  • "This has been such a worthwhile investment in myself. I was having pain when running during my marathon build up - my sessions with Andrew were a huge help. "
