Introduction Known as the ‘English Disease’, rickets, or for adults, osteomalacia, is a vitamin deficiency disease that causes the softening of bone. It was discovered in the early twentieth century that the cure to rickets was a newly discovered vitamin, called vitamin D1.

My aim with this blog post is to document a little bit of my origin story and training approach that led me to back to back 11-minute personal records (PRs) at the Richmond Marathon in 2023 (2:52:47) and just recently at Richmond 2024 (2:41:00). Spoiler alert: I couldn’t have accomplished anything without the great gifts

There is a consensus that running biomechanics influences the risk of developing running-related injuries. Treadmill form has been shown to closely resemble overground running form. This makes it possible to use a treadmill form analysis as a proxy for understanding overground running form. It’s quick, easy, cheap, and can help generate some serious insight into
