Back to the drawing board! I have been operating under the mistaken impression recently that my transition to a fore-foot striking, minimalist/barefoot-style runner was nearly complete. Hah! As this picture, which appeared on the Crossfit South Brooklyn blog on Saturday, clearly demonstrates, not only is my heel striking the ground, but I am failing to keep my arms in the proper, higher position. Time to resume those drills and continue with the next training/coaching cycle leading up to the NYC Marathon in November! Thank you for the Brooklyn Half shout-out, @cfsbk! More on the race, soon.
