There are of course more than 42 tips that someone can utilize to become a better runner. The reason I chose 42 is entirely personal; they are not the best 42 tips or the most important; they are simply my 42 tips. These are the first 42 tips that popped into my head while I was thinking of what makes a better runner taken out of 6 years of running, from 5km to 50km, and they are also the result of a lot of running injuries and applied knowledge accumulated from other runners and books.
