Run longer, and even a forefoot striker will probably be rearfoot striking. […]

Out of interest, are you aware of any similar research for trail runners? My instinct tells me that heel striking would be less prevalent in trail runners but it would be interesting to see if that assumption is correct. Cheers, Paul

I was thinking by now most people where adopting a running style like Chi- or Pose running. Guess I was wrong.

There are a few studies that have looked at gait on trail surfaces, but as far as I know none from a race. I need to get on that :)

The race was filmed in 2009, so before the recent minimalist trend really took off. I filmed again this year to see if patterns have changed at all.

I’ve done that in the past I suspect, but my research on tadpole development didn’t exactly attract a lot of interest :) Trying to stick to the rules since I’m new to this Journal and general research area.

To be really accurate, 300fps is what I like, but you could manage with one of the Casio’s that shoots at 240 and not lose much. I have a camera that does 120fps, and for playing around it’s fine, but you do lose more information. I agree – lots of stuff happens in the moments just before the foot comes down. I’m really intrigued by the movement of the foot relative to the ground prior to contact – it’s quite variable but very hard to quantify.
