I have recently just changed over to the hoka’s. They are the best shoes I have ever run in. I have done a couple of ultras, tri’s and marathons with no problems.

Well see, here's one of those slightly knock-kneed people that I would think might get injured, but perhaps since his hips remain stable he avoids getting hurt. Sometimes the insides of my knees touch a bit when I'm running. I don't think my q angle is the most optimal, but I don't think my hips drop. Maybe I should get a gait analysis. Fuck that... Just gonna keep going by feel and common sense until the wheels come off. So far so good. Looking forward to an hour in the Adios Boost tomorrow.

In reply to Chris Narbone.

I would classify his heel strike as mild, and with the way the rest of his stride looks I wouldn't change a thing. I'm not aware of much in the way of conclusive evidence pointing to a change in foot strike bringing along performance gains for a guy at his level.

What do you make of the continued internal rotation of the tibia after take of - left more so than right as sen by both feet rotating in after push off? Seems to me his glutes are unable to control the internal rotation force that comes with landing and he is losing a source of power upon push off?

You should see the reactions I sometimes get in the office when showing people their videos! Especially the rear view...

This is all starting to make me very self-conscious.

Do you have an iphone 5s? It can shoot 120fps.

Sadly, mine is not one of them.

No worries, as I'd still need someone to tell me what to do once I could get video, lol
