Maggie shows off perfect running form as she kicks in the final 20 yards at the NEGA Invitational. She is looking straight ahead, her shoulders and hands are relaxed, and her arms are in sync with her legs. Good form adds up in the course of a race - by practicing and being cognizant of proper form we will not get tired as easily and will be able to race more effortlessly. Good form = faster runners.
This is not to say that people with bad form are slow. That is to say some runners are fast IN SPITE of their form. If they were to work on their form they would be even faster.
