Here’s a question for you smart people out there. I notice when I bend more down I feel like I glide smoother over the ground, my heel comes closer to my butt and the whole recovery fase seems to be more efficient. However I’m used to not really bending and generally running fast even though my form is very much an ugly shuffle. What do everyone else do? Bend a lot? How much? what is the correct way?
prs: 15:30 - 1:10 - 2:30
If by bend you mean forward lean, then it's totally fine as long as it's slight. Everyone has slightly different biomechanics, and for some a forward lean is their most optimal and natural form. Just don't force anything form-wise unless a coach says you seriously need to fix it.

Nope not like, I already lean just a tiny bit, nothing more than I start to feel uncomfortable. What I mean is something like the advice “run like you’re 5 inches smaller” where you scrunch a bit downwards if that makes more sense
