"Just run"
Found this article in runnersworld.com about running gait and how it changes while running fast and a bit slower among elite runners or amateurs.
It's true that there is a lot more controversial results that come from studies than proof that would settle this debate..

November update on XC, knee
The XC season has come and now it is gone. I really wish I have had more athletes to stay with the program. Unfortunately, this was it but now I'm fully focused on the upcoming track season. I should have a couple of guys competing- if everything goes all well. A few sprinters another jumper and kid who could be good in almost anything he wants to. As for now, its all about putting the possible meets together and starting the training with those whom I already talked to.
My knee hasn't been cooperating as I would've hoped for. I haven't run (besides a couple times in the past 2 weeks to see how it goes) for close to three months now. Swimming, on the other hand, is coming together. My times have been dropping. The fastest 10 laps (500yds) I swam was 6:55 and that was after 10 laps not-too-slow warm-up.
The weather really hasn't gotten too bad just yet. I really wish I could be running now because this is very unusual for this time of the year.
