TIP OF THE DAY: Theoretically, the longer your stride, the faster you should be able to run. A stride four feet long covers more ground than one three feet long. But everybody has a stride length that is perfect for his or her size and strength. A long stride causes the runner to lose momentum and waste energy by pushing too far ahead of his center of gravity. If you overstride, you may lose efficiency and find yourself running slower rather than faster. But understriding can also limit your efficiency and speed.
