So I decided to do something funny for a local costume 5K and I switched my shoes. I put my left shoe on my right foot and my right shoe on my left foot. Guess what happened - a Personal Best. I ran a 19:12 5K. My best time before that was 19:35. Does anyone know what the science is behind this?

re: what is right

I'm fairly certain that your left and right foot were switched at birth.
