Plyometrics are so painful, but so good for the runner out there that wants to increase power, and more importantly become more efficent in their stride and ground contact time. Cadence for a long distance runner is very important for achieving particular running speed goals. We need to have a high cadence in order to run faster, meaning our feet our touching the ground more often in a given minute of time. The more ground contact we have the more opportunity we have to propel ourselves forward through our stride, whether it be on a track, road, or cross country course. The plyometric exercises come into play because they enable our muscles and tendons to become more supple and therefore reactionary or springy to the force we supply through our toe off motion. I am a big fan of plyometrics for distance runners and I look forward to answering all of your questions down below in the comments on this particular long distance running topic.
