Cadence

Cadence is the number of steps per minute. Most runners are between 160 and 180 steps per minute; it rises naturally as you go faster.

• A slightly higher cadence, with shorter steps landing under your body, often reduces the impact on your knees.
• Don’t force it all at once: raise it by 5 % at most if you take long strides.

Kadence measures your cadence with your phone or Apple Watch.
