Another opinion (once you're more experienced) do your run-ups while taxiing. Not an issue in a 172, Warrior or similar.
Unbelievable that some pilots actually do that. Maybe "once you're more experienced" is just another way of saying the pilot is over-confident and exhibits very bad airmanship. It certainly is an "issue" in any aircraft including light singles such as a 172, Warrior or similar. It means dragging the brakes, head inside the cockpit while taxiing instead of outside the cockpit and leads to fast taxiing even while having the brakes on.
