Heel pushing - 06:35 20 May 10 A while ago there was a brief discussion about heel pushing. I think I agreed to put something together as to why it was a good thing, but I never got around to it. Now I've seen a blog post from Joey Mantia which goes (partly) against this view. You can watch the clip here:

Re:Heel pushing - 20:27 20 May 10 thanks Lemming - that was very interesting... it's amazing how much difference a little bit of technique improvement can make to your ability to cover distance, in my experience, it can have a more noticeable impact than fitness

Re:Heel pushing - 21:59 20 May 10 Good point Andy. I'm always banging on about technique being the vital bit, but I also know people who observe that without some sort of physical fitness, you can't maintain (or possibly even start thinking about) technique.

I think that once you hit a certain point, it's ALL about techique. Less effort for the same speed can't be bad!

P.S. I WILL make Eelmoor at some point, but I've been ill...
