Check out the Video Section. I thought not only for a good visual but an interesting breakdown of good and bad points making great use of run analysis software.

I find it interesting to see how they do all their analysis on the angles and such yet don't seem to take into account other possible factors that may affect a person's running biomechanics - eg previous injury to joints, pelvis or spine/leg shortening/differences in tibia/femur length ratio (if such a thing has been analysed). So what may be biomechanically perfect for one person, may not be physically possible for another. But it is interesting to see Paula's plantar-flexed foot!

Testimonials

"I wanted to thank you for your help earlier in the year with my IT Band injury. I finished the Sinister 7 and Deathrace this year healthy with no IT Band issues. I actually believe the second leg I completed in the Sinister 7 pushed my glute medius into finally working properly. I really believe the workouts you provided me made the difference this year and I wanted to thank you. To be honest, I didn’t know or necessarily believe I’d be alright after the Deathrace since for the last two years it’s signalled the end of the season for me. Now, I’m in uncharted waters. I haven’t been this healthy since 2006. I want to go after my Boston Marathon Qualifying time."
