Coloured Corners - Athletics is a resource which shall allow teachers to prepare the activities contained within this lesson from PE Resources Bank.

<p>In the Coloured Corners athletics drill, the emphasis is on improving running technique with a series of focused actions. Participants are encouraged to keep their 'head up' to maintain an alert posture and ensure they are aware of their surroundings. The 'high knees' instruction is about lifting the knees to a significant height with each stride, which helps to enhance leg strength and running form. Staying 'on toes' refers to running on the balls of the feet, which can increase speed and agility.</p>

<p>Additionally, 'fast feet' suggests a rapid turnover of steps, aiming for quickness and lightness in movement. The arms play a crucial role in running efficiency, and the drill specifies that arms should 'move from pocket to ear with a 90-degree bend in elbow'. This precise arm movement, where the hands move from the hip level (pocket) up towards the ear, helps to propel the body forward and maintain balance. It's essential for runners to remember these techniques to improve their overall performance and speed in athletics.</p>
