If you're bouncing too high, you are setting a natural limit to your speed by restricting your cadence from ever getting high enough to run a good 800m or less.
a good running form is a product of a good working machine.
when i came from soccer i ran with a gait to dribble he ball.
if you sit at a desk all your life, you need work.
if your muscles are imbalanced, you need work.
really you only need proper yoga intense and good all round muscle work and running itself to cure most.
but at the end of the day, it is best to look at some tape and see some flaws, and it ain't a bit of flailing around with the arms.
you want to especially work the feet and ankles, the western lifestyle produces very weak feet and ankles and running does not shore up those weaknesses very well.
if you do a lot of jogging, your form is going to be bad.
there is a lot to be done with your form.
tons.
but the bad form is a combo of many weaknesses, that have to be corrected, flexibility issues, back issues, abdominal issues, and finally the ingrained habits, which is the brain has figured out a way to bet by and run somewhat efficiently with all these issues.
