I do realise that the coaching part is invaluable. Mitch identified more than enough flaws in what I actually do to convince me of that.
What I suggested was - as I wrote - a starting point. Unless you are actually trying to land right you sure as hell aren't going to do it by chance.

:)G I find 7:30 miling or quicker pace easier to get good form, I do a lot of easy runs and can sometimes get fairly nice flow going at about 10min miling, the in between range is harder for me to get good form.

Oh J did you have to!
GlennR I would say it Is a start point to understand the benefit, the next step as you say, is to find someone to help you to understand how it feels to move in that way so that you can;-) it would be useful if leaflets and literature pointed this out.

eL Bee!
There are MANY ways to make an agricultural change to the way that you run, that will be beneficial in terms of reducing the dynamic impacts on your body. But as has already been mentioned, there is no guarantee that you are actually doing what you perceive that you are doing. (A point that has ALSO been made :))
J - wind your neck in, mate!

Glenn,
The point...IMO is that the starting point should be theory and application(method for running). Not just "do this" or "try to do that". Of course the individual will need to use his/her knowledge and experience to decide which methodology will get him/her to the proper running technique.

I agree with you completely J.
What I suggested involves accepting the basics of the theory and realising that it's a good thing to try to apply them.
