There is no single prescription for efficient running; we are all put together
differently. There are general principles of body form that can be applied to all
runners. Be sensitive to your own structure and abilities and never force a particular
running style on yourself that doesn't feel right. If your body is relaxed and balanced
by being erect, you won't have to spend energy keeping your head, neck, shoulders, etc.,
aligned. The muscles of your jaw and face should be so relaxed that they bounce
and shake as you run. Relax your upper body; it's just going along for the ride and
you don't want to divert energy into this area.
