Running is a funny one, I suppose it is a little like squatting in that each and everyones technique will be a little different. I have gravitated towards the minimalist running with vibrams. I made the switch a couple of years ago and am still improving my form. Had a couple of calf injuries by thinking I must run on my toes with a big stride. Now my stride is shorter and more natural, more midfoot, with slight inversion. When I get a good stride like this it feels effortless, and I can run very fast for a long distance.
