I think the bit that wrangled the most was that by running Chi-like you didn't need to train and would easily run a sub-3 marathon. I may have paraphrased what DD actually said, but you should get where I'm coming from!!!!

Form is something I'm constantly mindful of and feel makes a difference. A lot of the form stuff I read is about sprinting and last year I bought this book: The Mechanics of Sprinting and Hurdling: 2015 Edition amazon.co.uk
