Back To The Future Of Running, Training Technique:

Can someone shed some light on this? I've never heard it said that you lean when barefoot running. Doesn't barefoot ken say to stay upright?

This looks like Pose Running. In reality if one keeps leaning forward a lot of energy gets used to trying to fight gravity as opposed to making it work for you. If one takes an objective look, I see an upright posture once he settles into his run. His forward landing is actually really close to landing as in most barefoot running forms. But this video again could open a dialogue with lots of opinions. If you feel comfortable running and don't have hip or back pain then why change.
