Particularly if fatigued, focus on this stride rate, which automatically produces the other characteristics of good running mechanics (landing on the balls of the feet, fast pull, etc.). Scott Jurek reinforced this: "If you focus on higher stride rate, much of the rest corrects itself." This, to me, is the crucial insight. Ken Mierke, a world-champion triathlete and exercise physiologist, studied Kenyan runners frame-by-frame and now trains his athletes to mimic this "running on hot coals" approach of smaller steps and higher cadence. The result? Some of them --like Alan Melvin, who was a world-class triathlete to begin with--do the seemingly impossible, as described in the book Born to Run.
